Discard all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
Stir in onions and mushrooms, and cook until soft.
Remove from heat.

In a large bowl, stir together beef, egg, and milk.
Stir in the onion and mushrooms.
Mix in about 4 ounces of Swiss cheese, and all but 1 tablespoon of bacon. Stir in cornflake crumbs, and mix until well blended.
Shape into a loaf, and place in a meatloaf pan.

Bake in a preheated oven for 1 hour.
Drain fat, and sprinkle with remaining cheese and bacon.
Return to oven, and bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
