The Buchers Wifes Meatloaf! (its aggressive)

What you need:

1 pound bacon slices - use normal bacon, maple bacon completely shifts the taste
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground pork
4 eggs
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
1 cup parmesan cheese
 garlic – minced - notice, there is no restriction here... if your putting less than a tablespoon, your meatloaf is going to suck - load it up, there is NEVER enough.

1 whole white onion

1 teaspoon salt and pepper — as needed

4 tablespoons parsley – minced
8 ounces prosciutto — sliced thin, or thick, at this point, you have over 3 pounds of meat, whats a few more slices of prosciutto right?  Christ if you want take a few Jimmy Dean Sausage patty's ground them up and toss them in there... that started as a joke, but now I am thinking that might be a killer idea.
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded

8 ounces of Provolone

10 ounces spinach — FRESH.. it will cook in the loaf, otherwise it gets damn soggy.

What to do!!

Prepare the meat loaf mix:

Chop the onion and Combine with the beef, pork, egg, breadcrumbs, cheese, garlic and seasoning. Combine to form a smooth mix.

Lay out plastic wrap 24 inches by 24 inches. Lay slices of bacon side by side along the top of WAX PAPER.. DO NOT USE ANYTHING ELSE, it WILL stick!!!  Also, use a lot of it, its wax paper people, it costs like 2 bucks.
- USE ALL THE BACON... you think Im nuts now, you will thank me LATER :) 

Spread the meatloaf mix on the bottom of the bacon. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on meat loaf mix then slices of prosciutto.
Lay down half of the Provolone on top of the prosciutto. Spread the fresh spinach along the prosciutto slices, then cover up the spin, with the rest of the provolone. Season with salt and pepper, and garlic salt...come on baby, you know you want to.

Roll up the meat loaf into a spiral and wrap with the bacon. Use plastic wrap to wrap the log nice and tight. Season with black pepper. - OK this is not easy... it usually takes two people.  GREASE your pan first, make sure its big enough, and use the wax paper to help you.  Roll it slowly and BIG, this is not a Jelly roll, its a goddamn meat roll for Christ sake, its going to fall apart!! Just take is slowly, be patient and you will get it.  Once it is together mold it with your hands so that there are as few holes as possible.

Place on a greased baking pan and bake in a 350 degree oven to an internal temperature of 145 degrees about 45 minutes. - use your meat thermometer... that is always the best bet

Remove from oven, cover loosely with foil and allow to rest 10 minutes

The original recipe says that you should cut this into 12 slices..... hahahahahaha... ya, ok, if your planning on eating serving it as an appetizer. 

 Cut to your delight friends, this is not exactly something you cook when the mother in law comes over, this is something you eat when your starving, hung over, or just feel like "stuffing face"... I actually have a very vivid picture in my mind of my old pal Ari, rolling around, on the floor, tears in his eyes, holding his stomach 'ughh ohhhhh, hahhhh, mmmyyy tumm, oh, oh god, oh it hurts..." (que laughing) "I kind of want more.."

Good Luck ya'll this is the mother of meatloafs... show that bitch whos boss :)
