Hi Helga, nice to meet you. I've been watching your channel for just a short time, but I really enjoy it. I was born n raised in SW PA so you feel like home to me. I moved to TX when was married at 19 and always go back to PA to be with my family. Thanks for sharing with us. Gloria
I've been to Lancaster county Pa. Shady Maple Smorgasburg. It's amazing there they have everything to eat. Salads desserts seafood. Ham Balls .. My first time having ham balls they were delicious. I think you have the same concept just different form . I'm going to give it a try thank you very much.❤️
Shady maple ham loaf mix is good!!! I buy the seasoned or the unseasoned. I put some ground cloves in mine and sometimes use a jarred ham glaze when in a pinch. I am going to have to try your recipe!!
I just picked some up from a local butcher here in NE Indiana. Plenty of Dutch/Germans around here including myself lol This is a great idea! and I even thought about doing it in cast iron, so this is perfect and looks amazing.
My Fave Hamloaf: For the Loaf: 2 lbs ground ham 1 1/2 lbs ground beef 1/2 lb ground pork sausage 2 c ground graham crackers (or 1 cup soda and 1 cup graham crackers) 1 1/2 c milk (or 1/2 cup ham juice and 1 cup milk) 1 finely chopped onion 1 finely chopped red bell pepper 1 finely chopped green bell pepper For the Sauce: 1 can tomato soup 1/2 c cider vinegar 1 T. dry mustard 1 c brown sugar Combine loaf ingredients with your hands. Can omit the onion and peppers if desired. Shape into a loaf onto a master roaster or bread pans. Combine sauce ingredients and pour over the top of the loaf. Cover and bake at 350*F for 2 hours. Uncover the remaining last 30 minutes of the cook. Makes 12 or more servings. Reheats well. Good for sandwiches. Pairs well with potatoes and steamed vegetables.
I love this! Used to live in Ohio, so could buy ham loaf mix and pre-made ham loaf at our butcher's. Sadly, here in Oklahoma, no such thing. So I make my own. Never thought of doing it in a CI skillet, will definitely try it that way!
Mmmm! I have a ham loaf recipe from my grandma that my family likes. I make it with either thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. But yours looks really good too, especially in the cast iron pan And with that glaze! We love our cast irons around here, so I'm for sure going to try it out! Thanks Helga!
This looks great Helga. We have a big ol' ham that we are going to cook. I know there will be lots of left overs. We will have to give this a try. Love the glaze you put on this.
Great timing! I have the ingredients for my Grandmother’s Ham Loaf and your recipe is very close. I like the idea of using the cast iron! Have a great Thanksgiving!
Never seen this before but I love it! That sweet mustard sauce has to be delicious! I'm going to give this a shot on the grill! Happen Thanksgiving to you and your family Helga!
Yup, just smoked ham ground up. I get it like that from the butcher, like hamburger, but you can do it in a food processor, too. Make sure the meat if well chilled, chops better.
Hey Helga Never had Ham Loaf until about 15 years ago..HATED it, BUT, yours looks good. Since my stroke, my tastes have changed, I might have to give it another small taste? Thank you. Do you have just a plain old Potato soup and rivel recipe? I don't really eat meat anymore. I like it, I just can't eat it. looong story :+(((( Happy Thanksgiving. God bless: Dave
I would love to try this. I have never seen ground ham in our stores. Ground pork is even hard to find. If you grind it yourself do you use cooked ham or uncooked?
Not in moderation, LOL. Here is the average values although it varies- A slice of hamloaf contains about 9.4 grams of total fat, which is 12% of the total calories in the slice. Here are some other nutritional facts for a slice of hamloaf: 262 calories 2.4 grams of saturated fat 0.1 grams of trans fat 2.1 grams of polyunsaturated fat 3.3 grams of monounsaturated fat 83 milligrams of cholesterol 796 milligrams of sodium 23 grams of total carbohydrates 0.5 grams of dietary fiber 15 grams of sugars 21 grams of protein
When I lived in Ohio ham balls & ham loaf were a big deal. I have lived in Texas for over 40 years & the people down here don't know anything about that. If an Amish family opened a buffet in the Houston area they would be millionaires within 1-2 years.
Every video has the recipe in the description below the video. HAM LOAF: 2 lbs ground smoked ham 1 lb ground pork 1 C panko bread crumbs with 1 tsp Italian seasoning OR Italian bread crumbs 1/2 C parsley 4 beaten eggs Mix all together well and fit into pan or loaves SAUCE 1 C brown sugar 1 C water 1/2 C vinegar 1 tbs mustard Mix well together and pour half over ham loaf to start, and rest half way through baking.

Hi Helga, I can hardly hear you because of the music. Nobody is searching out recipes to find out what music you like. Please drop it. Thank you. P.S. Like many other people, I wear hearing aids. The music is a real problem.

So glad you enjoyed it!

My Mom used to buy ham loaf in aluminum tins and I loved it, I don't find it, so I am going to try this, looks delicious Helga.
Yes, we have that around here. But this is a great recipe, I'm sure you'll love it! Thank you!
This looks absolutely wonderful!
You would love this, guarenteed!

You won't be sorry!
Helga that glaze looks AMAZING!!! Thanks for making this video...love the cast iron idea, too!
Thanks, COCO!
The ends were always the best part. The round cast iron really solves that problem!
LOL, I agree! Thank you!

Hey good to see yah.
Excellent recipe & Directions.
I have had this in the nearby Mennonite community/town and for dinner at my Oma's house years ago.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I made this today, had to grind ham in my food processor and mix with ground pork. Came out great! Thanks Helga.
Yay, so glad you liked it! Thank you!
I love this! Used to live in Ohio, so could buy ham loaf mix and pre-made ham loaf at our butcher's. Sadly, here in Oklahoma, no such thing. So I make my own. Never thought of doing it in a CI skillet, will definitely try it that way!
Thank you! It cooks faster and more evenly in the skillet, I've found!
Mmmm! I have a ham loaf recipe from my grandma that my family likes. I make it with either thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. But yours looks really good too, especially in the cast iron pan And with that glaze! We love our cast irons around here, so I'm for sure going to try it out! Thanks Helga!
Everyone has their favorite recipe but this is hard to beat!
Looks yummy
Thank you!
Never heard of it either! Wow...I’ll be making this...thanks!!💗🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻
It's really yummy!
Hi Helga, I've heard of ham loaf but never had it, it looks delicious I am going to have to try it.
You gotta try it, it's excellent!
This looks great Helga. We have a big ol' ham that we are going to cook. I know there will be lots of left overs. We will have to give this a try. Love the glaze you put on this.
Thanks, Billy, the glaze definitely takes it up a notch.
Looks fabulous Helga. I wish I were there.
Thank you!
Boy that looks delicious 😋
I have friends who make it and each have a different recipe but all are delicious. One of my favorite meals
Yes, recipes vary for sure, I make it the way "I" like it, LOL! thank you!
Helga's Pennsylvania Cooking that’s the only way to make it 😉👍🏻
Never had it. But I would enjoyed it.
Thanks!
Great timing! I have the ingredients for my Grandmother’s Ham Loaf and your recipe is very close. I like the idea of using the cast iron! Have a great Thanksgiving!
Thanks so much and Happy Thanksgiving!
I have never seen this before, but it looked awesome and I know I would love it with that basting sauce. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving !
Thanks, Ron, it's different I guess, but very yummy! Happy thanksgiving to you and Paivi!
Never seen this before but I love it! That sweet mustard sauce has to be delicious! I'm going to give this a shot on the grill! Happen Thanksgiving to you and your family Helga!
That would be awesome on the grill! Thank you!
Great video Helga, never seen this before here in the UK.
I've honestly not seen it outside of our region! But darn glad we have it, lol! Thank you!
I've never heard of ham loaf until yesterday when someone mentioned it on another video. I might have to add this to my "things to make" list.
We love it! I hope you give it a try!
Cant wait to try this!
Hope you like it!
Can't beat that for leftovers Helga. Wow
Yup, mike made sammiches with them! Thank you!
Oh yeah !!! Yum
Thanks, BV!
Yummy
Oh yeah, this stuff is delicious!
Oh my I can taste it thru the screen !!! Looks sooooo yummy . Is it just smoked ham ground real good like in a food processor or ......
Yup, just smoked ham ground up. I get it like that from the butcher, like hamburger, but you can do it in a food processor, too. Make sure the meat if well chilled, chops better.
There are as many different types of ham as there are sausages so what did you use in yours if I may ask?
Hey Helga

This got hung up in YT land! This is what i usually make when ,making potato soup. ruclips.net/video/0zU4RcNgBqI/видео.html
It wold be hard for me to "let it rest". I want it now! : )
LOL, let it rest, it saves the best!
I would love to try this. I have never seen ground ham in our stores. Ground pork is even hard to find. If you grind it yourself do you use cooked ham or uncooked?
I use uncooked. It can dry out if you use cooked.
@@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspot , I do not recall ever seeing a uncooked ham.
Do you have to use Brown sugar. We do not like it because of the sweetness and diabetic.
I use canned crushed pineapple with no added sweeteners. If you use an actual pineapple, the core has more sugars.
As stated by Gary below, you can use pineapple or even stevia.
Big lk👍👍👍😉😍
My new dear friend🙏👏
Is hamloaf fattening?
Not in moderation, LOL. Here is the average values although it varies-
A slice of hamloaf contains about 9.4 grams of total fat, which is 12% of the total calories in the slice. Here are some other nutritional facts for a slice of hamloaf:

796 milligrams of sodium
23 grams of total carbohydrates
0.5 grams of dietary fiber
15 grams of sugars
21 grams of protein
What size cast iron pan is this?
12 incher!
I lost my sweet potato casserole recipe. I haven't made it in over 15 years.
Well, I don't know if this is like your's but it's darn good! ruclips.net/video/0vPGl0oDvB8/видео.html
I like crushed pineapple in mine
I do too, but sadly, my other half does not, LOL.
When I lived in Ohio ham balls & ham loaf were a big deal. I have lived in Texas for over 40 years & the people down here don't know anything about that.
If an Amish family opened a buffet in the Houston area they would be millionaires within 1-2 years.
Jeez, maybe that should be my new retirement plan, LOL! Those poor people don't know what they're missing!
@@PennsylvaniacookingBlogspot I remember the Amish buffets in Ohio & if they opened one in Texas they could retire in a year (2 years max).
