BONE-IN HAM COOKED IN BEER



Bone-In Ham Cooked in Beer image

This is a recipe we have used for the past 5 years. The beer really tenderizes the ham. Using beer is probably a Wisconsin thing. We seem to find many uses for it. But don't worry, the ham will not taste like beer when it is done other than maybe a small hint on the bottom portions. I don't like beer at all, so I was quite skeptical at first, but when I found out that the ham I had at my friend's house for Christmas the year before had beer used to make it, I tried it and have been hooked ever since.

BEER HAM



Beer Ham image

This recipe was given to me by mt Aunt Therese. She has been using the recipe since she was married. The ham is so moist and tender, and fragrant, just try it and see. You will need to remove it from the pocket with great care as it tends to fall apart!

Provided by Midge Plourde

Categories     Ham

Time 5h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 lbs ham (boneless)
1 cup maple syrup
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup beer
1 large onion, diced

Steps:

  • Scar ham and prick with whole cloves.
  • Make a large enough pocket out of aluminum foil to accomodate the ham.
  • Put the ham in the pocket, mix remaining ingredients together, and pour over the ham, then seal the pocket.
  • Place in a covered roasting pan, and bake at 400 degrees farenheit for approximately 1 hour per pound.
  • Even better though, place sealed aluminum pocket in your slow cooker, and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
  • The slow cooker is my preferred method.

ROOT BEER HAM



Root Beer Ham image

Despite its regal countenance, a glazed holiday ham is surprisingly easy to cook - though "cook" is misleading here, as most supermarket hams already come fully cooked and just need to be heated through in the oven. Here, a bone-in half ham (try not to get the spiral-sliced kind, which can dry out easily) gently bakes in an aromatic pool of shallots, bay leaves and root beer, a variation on the Southern classic made with cola. The root beer braising liquid is reduced with brown sugar and Dijon into a sticky glaze that lacquers the scored ham with caramelized luster. Save the braising liquid and serve alongside to spoon onto slices for even more flavor and juiciness.

Categories     meat, main course

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 bone-in, fully cooked unsliced half ham (8 to 12 pounds)
2 (12-ounce) cans root beer
2 large shallots, halved lengthwise
2 large dried or fresh bay leaves
1/4 packed cup dark brown sugar
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons rice vinegar

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Using a sharp knife, make parallel cuts across the surface of the ham, about 1/2 inch deep and 1 inch apart, then repeat in the opposite direction to create a diamond pattern.
  • Place the ham in a deep, large roasting pan, cut side down, and pour the root beer over the ham. Add the shallots and bay leaves to the root beer in the roasting pan. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and bake, basting once halfway through, until the ham is heated through (it's already cooked). The internal temperature should reach 135 degrees, about 15 minutes per pound (2 to 3 hours total).
  • When the ham is done heating through, carefully remove from the oven and raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees. Uncover the ham and ladle out 2 cups of the root beer braising liquid into a large skillet.
  • To make the glaze, add the brown sugar, mustard and rice vinegar to the root beer in the skillet and bring to a boil, whisking occasionally and watching that it doesn't boil over. Cook until reduced significantly, syrupy and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and drip off slowly, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Using a spoon or a brush, apply half of the glaze all over the surface of the ham. Bake, uncovered, until the glaze is bronzed, bubbling and gorgeous (but not burned), 8 to 12 minutes.
  • Transfer the ham to a cutting board to rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing thinly and serving with the extra glaze. Carefully pour the braising liquid into a gravy boat and serve alongside, as well.

Tips for Cooking Bone-In Ham in Beer:

  • Choose the right ham: Select a bone-in ham that is fully cooked and weighs between 10 and 12 pounds. A larger ham will require a longer cooking time.
  • Prepare the ham: Remove the ham from the packaging and rinse it under cold water. Pat the ham dry with paper towels.
  • Score the ham: Use a sharp knife to score the fat cap of the ham in a diamond pattern. This will help the ham to absorb the beer and seasonings.
  • Create the beer marinade: In a large bowl, combine the beer, brown sugar, honey, garlic, rosemary, thyme, and cloves. Stir until the sugar and honey are dissolved.
  • Marinate the ham: Place the ham in the beer marinade and turn it to coat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the ham for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • Transfer the ham to a roasting pan: Place the ham in a roasting pan and pour the beer marinade over it. Cover the roasting pan with foil.
  • Bake the ham: Bake the ham for about 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C). Remove the foil and continue to bake the ham for another 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  • Let the ham rest: Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving.

Conclusion:

Bone-in ham cooked in beer is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any special occasion. The beer marinade infuses the ham with flavor and helps to keep it moist and juicy. This recipe can be easily customized to suit your own taste preferences. For example, you can add different spices to the marinade, such as paprika, cumin, or chili powder. You can also use different types of beer, such as a dark beer or a wheat beer. No matter how you choose to make it, bone-in ham cooked in beer is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
