THIS HAM LOAF CAN BE MADE WITHOUT THE PINEAPPLE. BUT MAKE SURE YOU GLAZE WITH SAUCE
1 lb ground ham
1 lb ground pork
3/4 tsp each - salt & pepper
1 1/2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 eggs
4 slice fresh wheat or white bread crumbs - or 2 cups worth
1/2 c milk
1 medium onion, minced
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 - 1/2 CUP DRAINED CRUSHED PINEAPPLE FOR THE TOP
BASTING SAUCE
1/4 c vinegar
1/2 c brown sygar
1/4 c pineapple juice
1 Tbsp dry mustard

Steps:

  • 1. In a small saucepan, whisk together glaze ingredients and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 10 minutes, then cool. It will thicken some as it cools.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Grease a baking dish or small roaster. In a large bowl, mix all ham loaf ingredients until thoroughly blended.
  • 3. Pour out meat mixture into prepared baking dish and shape into a loaf as you would a meatloaf. Brush the top of loaf with glaze. Place in oven and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, glazing several times during baking process.
  • 4. Remove from oven. sprinkle on the pineapple if using and drizzle with glaze. Place back into oven for another 10 - 15 minutes. I broiled the last 5 minutes.
  • 5. Place onto a serving platter and slice. Serve with remaining glaze.
