Fantastic! Tastes like Arby's only better!
I doubled the recipe for an event this weekend. It was delicious and I could have easily eaten two sandwiches. I will be sure to stir it frequently since the my newer crock pot is very hot. **Update: You can also use leftover ham from a bone-in dinner. Just place slices in the crock pot and shred it with a fork once it's hot. Yummy!** BTW, I do NOT add the water.
My Grandma used to make this but used what was called chipped ham. I don't know if they slice it that thin anymore Yes, she was from Pittsburgh!
Very good! Quick and easy. I topped the sandwiches with provolone cheese and served on club rolls. Will definitely make again!
I grew up in western PA, so this recipe is very close to the one my mother and aunts used. We bought the "chipped ham"from Isaly's and then did the sauce at home. It is a famous prep in the Pittsburgh area, still available in local diners especially around the stadium areas.I now live in northern New England, and have found the Hormel low sodium deli ham to be the closest to what I remember.Also, when I use my small crockpot to make this yummy treat, I do not add any water, since the ham will release liquid as it cooks.Go Steelers and Pirates!!!!
Quick to put together and has a sweet but tangy taste. I did add some Head Country season salt and decreased the water by half. The ham will release some water as it cooks. It is good, but what I love the best is being able to put in the the crock while I am running errands, then it is ready when we get in.
I used leftover spiral ham, and thought this recipe was addicting. Sweet and tangy!

I too grew up in the region where these sandwiches were popular. This recipe was ok, but I have had better. I'll be looking for other recipes to try to duplicate the taste from my childhood.
Unfortunately, this really was not great at all.
