Cut the cap of the tomatoes off about 1 inch from the stem and set aside.
Remove all the seeds and interior membranes from the tomatoes and set aside in a bowl.
Season the interior of your tomatoes with salt and turn them over on a cookie cooling rack to allow more water to be disposed of.
Meanwhile, in the food processor, chop the parsley, garlic, and ham.
Add to your bowl with the tomato seedling, the white breach chunks, and the sausage meat. Mix well and add the chopped parsley, garlic, and ham to the bowl. Season with pepper and salt and add Worcestershire sauce. Mix well to obtain a homogenous stuffing.
