Here is a great ham loaf from Price Club/Costco (I prefer the alternative sauce mentioned at the bottom of the recipe):

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor or meat grinder, chop ham into a coarse mixture (do not make into a paste) using pulses. Place into a bowl with all other loaf ingredients and mix well.

Form into one large loaf or two smaller loaves and place in a baking pan. With the back of a knife, make 1/4 inch deep crosshatch patterns on the top of the loaves (these will hold the basting sauce).

Brush the tops with some of the basting sauce. Bake for 1 1/4 hours, basting four or five times. Loaves should be firm and nicely brown. Slice into 1/2 slices and serve with some of the sauce.

This makes great cold sandwiches.

A different basting sauce: mix equal parts orange marmalade and dijon or brown mustard, or the same with apricot preserves.
