Meatloaf queries - slowcooker?

Hi
Ive never cooked meatloaf so hoping someone can advise on a few things.
Firstly it says to cook slowly in the oven in a waterbath but wondered if the slowcooker would be a simpler way to do this. I have a low and high setting on mine, what do you suggest.
Im a bit worried as its something you really dont know if its cooked correctly until you take it out to serve.
Also im on a diet currently and the recipe calls for bacon across the top but I felt this was maybe a bit excessive especially as its the only thing I would need to specially purchase. Could I do without it?
Many thanks in advance for your help :-)

I'm sure I have cooked meatloaf in the SC in the past. I think I wrapped the loaf tightly in foil and put a couple of cm of water in the SC dish. No idea how long I cooked it for or what setting, sorry!
I would imagine the bacon is to stop the meatloaf drying out in the oven, that wouldn't be a prob in a SC so I wouldn't bother with the bacon.weaving through the chaos...0 -
