Lay a few additional strips of bacon or pork across the top of the loaf. Bake at 350 degrees 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Test with a meat thermometer, and when its center has reached 150 degrees it is done. Baste several times during the baking. serve with a tomato sauce (?!?) and scalloped potatoes or cold with mustard or Cumberland sauce and a salad.
