1 can pineapple slices 1 lb ground smoked ham ½ tsp salt 2 eggs slightly beaten 2 tbsp pineapple juice 1 cup fine breadcrumbs 1 cup milk	3 tbsp butter or margarine 1½ lb ground pork A few grains pepper ¼ tsp dry mustard ¾ cup brown sugar 2 tbsp vinegar
Start the oven at 350F/176C or moderate. Arrange the pineapple slices in the bottom of a 10”x5”x3” pan. Melt the butter/margarine and mix with a ¼ cup of brown sugar. Spread this on top of the pineapple. Mix the meats together thoroughly in a bowl. Mix in the breadcrumbs, salt and pepper. Stir in the milk and beaten eggs, mixing well. Pack this mixture into the pan Combine remaining brown sugar with the mustard and stir up with the vinegar and pineapple juice. Pour this syrup over the meat and bake for 1 hour.
