and the recipe, atty? i got ham coming out of my ears! :?:

lol.

Grab ye ole food processor.
Trim all ham so there's no skin or grizzle or excess fat. This is important. The skin will NOT grind up nice, and will be chewy chunks that you don't want. Trust me on this. Get rid of it even if it's the "best part" to you. ;)

Cut up ham into manageable chunks, trimmed. Throw in processor.

Now, sorry Tibs, but I don't measure. So just go by feel. ;)
Add the following (I've tried to order by most-to-least)
Paprika (good shake or two)
Onion Powder. (Tbl spoon?)
and even lesser amounts of
garlic powder
powdered mustard
Tumeric <-- important secret ingredient. Is a bit....dill like though, so don't add too much. maybe 1/2 tsp to start
pepper
salt (heavy pinch. Depends on the ham)
if you like spice, couple drops or more of Tabasco or some cayenne powder

Now, the idea is to grind all this up until you like the consistancy. BUT....you need to add 2 more things: Water and oil.

The water will help it grind up and also solve any "dry ham" issues from slices left over. ;) If you use all oil, it's too greasy. But you want some fat, and I use good fat like canola or veg oil.

Try a couple Tbl of oil and water. I end up using more water than oil. The more you grind it, the finer it will get. Taste it 1/2 way though and check for salt and seasoning.

It's all by feel. ;)

mayonnaise is illegal in this. You go to jail, I think.
