Ingredients

Gram's Ham Loaf
2 pounds ground smoked ham
2 pounds ground pork
2 cups crushed graham crackers
1 ½ cups evaporated milk
3 eggs, beaten
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed tomato soup
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup white vinegar
½ cup water

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet or jellyroll pan with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, mix the smoked ham and ground pork together until thoroughly mixed, and lightly mix in the graham crackers, evaporated milk, and eggs. Form the mixture into two loaves, and place the loaves onto the prepared baking sheet.
