Method

Turn the griddle on to medium/high to high heat (above 400°F [200°C]).
Lay the ham on the griddle, brown each side for about a minute, and then pull and set aside.
Once the griddle is to temperature, lay the oil on the griddle.
Place the 2 meatballs in the oil, ensuring space between the meatballs to give them room to be smashed.
