  (Not-Just-Your-Ordinary!) Combine chuck through seasonings. Add milk and 
  breadcrumbs. If necessary, add a little additional milk until it just 
  barely keeps together in your hands when you try to pick it up. In small 
  open roasting pan, form into oval. Lay strips of bacon on top. Bake at 450 
  for approximately 1 hour, or until bacon is crisp. Remove to paper towels 
  to drain before placing on serving platter.
