One of our family favorite meals this summer involves a new twist to the regular ham loaf recipe. Most people, like my husband think of ham loaf satisfying a winter hunger on a cold, bleak day. Serving mash potatoes completes this winter meal.
However, since my son will meat balls, I decided to make ham balls - in barbecue sauce. Round ham balls makes this favorite food more fun to eat. And using barbecue sauce adds a savory summer delight to your pot luck picnic. Serve this simple recipe with grilled potatoes wedges and asparagus and you have a yummy meal again and again.
Ham Loaf Ingredients
1 lb ground ham
1 lb ground pork
1/2 lb ground lamb
2 eggs
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
3/4 cup milk
Glaze Ingredients
1/2 can tomato soup or 4 ounces or barbecue sauce
1 cup brown sugar
1/8 cup vinegar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
ketchup
sugar
mustard
For meat, you may substitute 2 pounds of already prepared ground ham loaf from the grocery meat department. For ham loaf, bake mixture in loaf pan at 350 degrees for 1 hour. For ham balls, make round balls of mixture and place in casserole dish to bake for 25 minutes. Mix glaze separately, bringing to a boil before pouring on top of loaf/balls halfway through baking.
