ham balls

Saw this over on slashfood and I am really intrigued. Theirs look mostly like meatballs made with pork, but I think I can one up them. My goal is to get a nicely coat of crunchy sweet goodness around the smaller ham ball kind of like pig candy.
I will be doing a bunch of cross posting this week on beerorkid cuz I will be messing with lots of stuff Theresa wont eat since she is gone. Will be cranking up metal and bluegrass while cooking up a storm in my underwear.
Seriously. You've got to make them bigger then wrap them

My friend Julie makes the best ham balls--- let's see
Sarah | May 29, 2008My friend Julie makes the best ham balls— let’s see if I remember the recipe correctly—
1 pound of ground pork
1 pound of ground ham (available at Hy Vee)
1 egg
1 sleeve of saltines
Mix and roll into small balls. Spread on a cookie sheet and put in 400 deg oven. Turn them over until all sides are brown. Put in a crock pot with a sauce made of cider vinegar and brown sugar.
I’m not really into exact measurements, so I’m sorry I can’t be more specific.
good enough for me, thanks
