Line a loaf pan with the smoked bacon and add the sweetbreads mixture. Fold the bacon over the top and cook in a hot water bath at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hours. Allow to cool, pour off any liquid, then cover with aluminum foil, put a weight on top and refrigerate overnight. Remove from pan, slice and enjoy.
