     Title: Ham Loaf
Categories: Pork, Breads, Dairy
     Yield: 4 servings

MMMMM----------------------------LOAF---------------------------------
     1 c  Coarse crushed saltines
     1 c  Milk
     2 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
   1/8 ts Pepper
   1/2 c  Diced onion
 1 1/2 lb Ground ham
     1 lb Ground pork

MMMMM-----------------------BASTING SAUCE----------------------------
   1/2 c  (packed) brown sugar
     1 ts Ground mustard
 2 1/2 tb Vinegar
   1/4 c  Water

 Set the oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

 Start the meat mixture by whisking up the eggs in a
 large bowl, and then whisk in the milk. Stir in the
 bread crumbs and the ground pepper until the crumbs are
 moistened. Then, fold in the ground ham and ground pork;
 combine using a large wooden spoon or your hands.

 Press the ham mixture into a 9" X 5" loaf pan. Shape the
 loaf so that it’s slightly domed in the center and with
 space down the sides. That way, when you add the glaze
 it won’t pool in the middle. Rather, it will coat the
 whole loaf. Place the pan in the hot oven, and bake the
 loaf for 30 minutes.

 Meanwhile, whisk together the brown sugar, apple cider
 vinegar, ground mustard and water.

 Once the loaf has baked for 30 minutes, pull it from the
 oven, and spoon the glaze over the top. Put the ham loaf
 back in the oven, and bake for an additional 40 minutes,
 basting occasionally with glaze.

 It’s best if you let the finished ham loaf rest for at
 least 10 minutes. Then, slip the loaf from the pan onto
 a serving platter, spooning the glaze from the pan over
 the top. Slice the loaf into thick pieces, and serve.
