Ingredients

  • 10 (1 ounce) slices white bread, torn into pieces
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 pounds ground smoked ham
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 6 eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons flour
  • 2 teaspoons prepared mustard
  • 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place the bread in a large bowl, pour in the milk and soak until soft. Mash well, then mix in the ham, beef, eggs, salt, dry mustard, and 1/3 cup of brown sugar. Mix thoroughly and pack the mixture into a 9x13 glass baking dish. Stir together 1 cup of brown sugar, flour, and prepared mustard. Stir in enough vinegar to make a spreadable paste. Spread the topping over top of the meat.
  • Bake in preheated oven for one hour until the ground beef has cooked, and the topping has browned nicely.
