INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350F. Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over
medium-low heat. Add onion and bell pepper. Cover and cook until
vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Cool
mixture completely.  Mix ground pork, ham, crushed crackers, milk,
eggs, pepper, salt and  cooled onion mixture in large bowl; combine
thoroughly. Transfer pork  mixture to shallow baking pan. Shape into
9x4x2-1/2 inch loaf. Using  a long knife, make shallow crisscross
(diamond) pattern in top of  loaf. Bake loaf 30 minutes.  Meanwhile,
blend orange marmalade, Dijon mustard and brown sugar in  small bowl
for glaze.  Drizzle 1/3 cup glaze over loaf; bake 15 minutes. Drizzle
another 1/3  cup glaze over loaf; bake 15 minutes. Drizzle remaining
glaze over  loaf and bake until thermometer inserted into center of
loaf  registers 165F, about 20    minutes longer.  Transfer loaf to
platter; let stand 10 minutes. Pour pan juices into  small bowl; whisk
to blend: the sauce will be translucent and caramel  colored.  Cut loaf
crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices. Serve with pan juices.  From
