Prep. Preheat oven to 350 F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Glaze. In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the glaze and set aside.
Saute. Heat oil (2 tablespoons) in a large pan over medium heat. Once shimmering, add onion (1/2 chopped), 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Sauté until the onion is soft (about 10 minutes). Add minced garlic (4 cloves) and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant.
Combine. Place cooked veggies in a large bowl and stir in 1/3 of the glaze. Add the ground beef (2 Lb), eggs (3), pork rinds (1 cup), remaining salt, and pepper (1 teaspoon each) and combine thoroughly.
Assemble. Layer bacon strips (12) along the bottom of a 9x5 loaf pan, overlapping each piece slightly. Spread 1/3 of the glaze over the bacon. Press meatloaf into loaf pan over the glaze. Fold each piece of bacon over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake. Flip the loaf pan onto your parchment paper-lined baking sheet, so the bacon slices are facing up on the baking sheet. Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven for 1 hr - 1hr 30min -- your meatloaf is done once a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 155F. With the meatloaf still in the oven, turn the oven to broil, and cook until the bacon becomes crispy - about 3-5 minutes.
Serve. Brush the top of your warm meatloaf with the remaining glaze. Allow the meatloaf to cool 15 minutes before cutting into it. Enjoy!
