Holiday Pineapple and Cherry Glazed Ham image

This has been our go to Holiday ham as long as I can remember and this is what everyone expects when they come over, no if and or buts about it!!

Provided by Flavorite

Number Of Ingredients 8

1-20 ounce can sliced pineapples (I use Dole in the blue can)
1-10 ounce or small jar Maraschino cherries
1 cup light brown sugar-packed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
A pinch or 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 stick of butter or margarine-melted
1/2 cup pineapple juice (juice from the can of rings)
toothpicks

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a saucepan. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, ground cloves and pineapple juice and let simmer not even 5 minutes, just until the mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat.
  • Stick a toothpick in the cherry and lay pineapple ring around as many as you want to make beautiful, just drizzle glaze all over the top to soak in the pineapple. Cover with foil and place in pre-heated oven.
  • Calculate cooking time.(Your ham should have it's own instructions) It's about 15 minutes per pound, so for example; if you have a 20 pound ham, the cooking time would be 15 minutes for each pound, which would be 4 pounds per hour, which would = 5 hours cooking time
  • Remove foil 30 minutes before time to take out and give it 15 minutes of resting time before carving.

Pineapple Honey-Glazed Ham image

Ham dressed in pineapple rings and maraschino cherries is a holiday classic, burnished with a glossy glaze made with pineapple juice, honey and brown sugar. If you like sweet and salty, you'll love this show-stopping centerpiece!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 4h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

One 9- to 10-pound bone-in fully-cooked smoked ham (butt or shank half)
1 tablespoon whole cloves, optional
Two 20-ounce cans sliced pineapple
20 maraschino cherries
2 cups honey
2 cups light brown sugar

Steps:

  • Let the ham sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Trim off any skin from the ham. Use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Push the cloves into the ham, if using, placing them at the intersections of the cuts. Put the ham, flat-side down, on a rack in a roasting pan.
  • Drain the pineapples, reserving the juice. Arrange the sliced pineapple all over the ham, securing with toothpicks. Add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick.
  • Pour 1/4 inch water in the bottom of the pan and tent the ham with foil.
  • Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham (avoiding bone) registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (or about 15 minutes per pound).
  • Meanwhile, combine the honey, brown sugar and reserved pineapple juice in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, syrupy and reduced to about 3 cups, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
  • Uncover the pan and carefully brush a third of the glaze all over the ham. If the water in the roasting pan has evaporated, add more. Bake the ham for 15 minutes more. Brush with another third of the glaze and bake for 15 minutes more. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham and cook until the glaze is shiny and the skin is dark golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes more. Let rest for 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ham: For the best results, select a fully cooked ham that is at least 10 pounds. This will ensure that the ham is large enough to feed your guests and that it has enough meat to absorb the glaze. .
  • Score the ham: Before baking, use a sharp knife to score the ham in a diamond pattern. This will help the glaze to penetrate the meat and create a more flavorful ham. .
  • Make the glaze ahead of time: The glaze can be made up to 2 days in advance. This will save you time on the day of your party. .
  • Baste the ham frequently: While the ham is baking, baste it with the glaze every 15-20 minutes. This will help to keep the ham moist and flavorful. .
  • Let the ham rest before carving: Once the ham is cooked, let it rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the ham, making it more tender and flavorful. .

Conclusion:

This Cherry Pineapple Holiday Ham Glaze is a delicious and easy way to dress up a holiday ham. The glaze is made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and it can be made ahead of time. The ham is baked in the oven until it is cooked through, and then it is glazed and baked for a few more minutes until the glaze is bubbly and caramelized. The result is a ham that is moist, flavorful, and sure to impress your guests. .
