Deviled Ham

When was the last time anyone saw or heard of deviled ham? I think it's likely been several decades since I last bought that stuff in the can.

I was pleasantly surprised when The Mister (BTW, before I get too far into this blog and keep referring to my husband as The Mister, he has a name, and it's Kaz). He will be aptly referred to herein as Mr. K. That's better.

Well, as I was saying, he brought home a Honey Ham. I usually take all the slices off the bone, wrap up meal portions and freeze them for later. Then there is always the part on the back of the bone where there is still a lot of really good ham but takes some work to cut it up and it's never pretty. It's great for soups and/or sharing with my best buddy as a special treat. I usually put that in the freezer for a later date as well.
This time, I made deviled ham. After climbing up on top of the fridge and manipulating the box with the grinder out of the cupboard, I hooked it up to the Kitchen Aid. After removing the obvious fatty parts of the ham, I packed the grinder tube and turned on the Kitchen Aid. I almost filled up the mixer bowl...that made a lot of ground ham. There were probably 3 to 4 cups of ground ham in the bowl.
