Elegant Ham-Pineapple Rings

• 1 lb ground smoked ham or 1 lb turkey ham
• 1 lb leanest ground beef or 1 lb ground turkey
• 1 12 cups soft breadcrumbs
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup milk
• 1 (15 ounce) cansliced pineapple, with 1/2 cup juice preserved
• 1 12 cups brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon dried mustard
• 12 cup vinegar

1. Preheat the oven to 300.
2. Mix the ground meats with the crumbs, eggs and milk in a large bowl, and form the mixture into 16 patties.
3. Make 8"sandwiches," each composed of a single pineapple slice between two meat patties, and poke a hole down thru the center of each.
4. Bake in a baking pan 1 1/2 hour.
5. Immediately after the ham-pineapple rings go into the oven, mix together the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar and reserved pineapple juice and pour over the patties as they bake.
6. Variation: You may also halve the amount of meat used and serve each ring as a pineapple slice topping a single meat patty; if you do this, shorten the baking time to 1 hour.
