Instructions: Mince the beef and bacon, place in a basin with the breadcrumbs, pepper and salt, stir in half a pint of well flavoured stock, Worcestershire sauce and, lastly, the beaten eggs. Mix well together. Well grease a long bread pan, put in the mixture, cover with greaseed paper and bake in a very moderate oven for 2 hours. When cooked, remove from the oven, and whilst cooling press the top with a heavy weight. The next day, turn out of the mould and brush over a little meat glaze. Garnish with parsley and sliced tomato. N.B. Use half the quantities given above when a loaf of moderate size only is required.
