Ham BBQ Sandwich

Ingredients:

1. 1/2 cup butter
2. 1 small onion, finely chopped
3. 2 cups ketchup
4. 1/3 cup distilled white vinegar
5. 1/2 cup water
6. 3 tablespoons brown sugar
7. 2 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard
8. 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
9. 1 1/2 pounds chipped chopped ham
10. 8 Kaiser rolls, split
11. 1 cup pickle relish

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
2. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir the onions in the butter until translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir the ketchup, vinegar, water, brown sugar, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce into the skillet with the onions; simmer about 10 minutes.
4. Stir in the ham; cook until heated through and the sauce is bubbling, 5 to 7 minutes more. While the ham simmers, heat the Kaiser rolls in the preheated oven until toasted, 5 to 7 minutes.
5. Assemble the sandwiches by dividing the ham mixture among the toasted Kaiser rolls, topping the ham with pickle relish.
6. Serve hot.
