Steps:

  • Dry a bone-in, fully cooked half ham (do not use a country ham) and bring to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Trim the ham skin, leaving the fat intact. Score the fat in a crosshatch pattern, making the cuts about 3/4 inch deep and 1 inch apart. Put the ham flat-side down on a rack in a roasting pan; add 1 cup water. Bake on the lowest oven rack, 40 minutes, adding more water if the pan gets dry. Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk 1 cup jam or marmalade with 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1 cup dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons cider vinegar and 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce. Brush the ham with half of the glaze; cover loosely with foil and bake 45 more minutes. Brush with the remaining glaze and bake, uncovered, until the glaze is browned, 40 to 50 more minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before carving.
  • Don't toss your ham bone! Add it to simmering soups, beans or braised greens for extra flavor.
  • Give your ham a great crunch: Sprinkle one of the below mixes onto the glaze before the last 40 to 50 minutes of cooking.
  • Spring Herb Mix 1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs), 3 tablespoons each chopped parsley and chives, and the grated zest of 1 lemon.
  • Cornmeal-Thyme Crush 1 cup cornbread stuffing mix; toss with 2 tablespoons chopped thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander and 1/2 cup cornmeal.
  • Spicy Sourdough Grind 3 cups cubed sourdough bread in a food processor; toss with 1 tablespoon chili powder and 1 bunch chopped scallions.

HONEY GLAZED HAM



Honey Glazed Ham image

This ham tastes very much like the famous honey baked ham but costs much less, and there's no need to fight the crowds at holiday time. You can even buy the ham presliced to make it easier and more like the original. It is very good. (I do this while preparing the rest of the meal in the kitchen so that I don't forget to baste!)

THE BEST GLAZED HAM!

Categories     Ham

Time 3h

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 -8 lbs fully cooked ham, chilled (average)
1 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup real butter
1/2 cup honey (clover preferred)
1/2 cup Coca-Cola Classic
1 (6 ounce) can frozen pineapple juice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon paprika
10 whole peppercorns
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
5 slices pineapple
5 whole maraschino cherries
clove

Steps:

  • First, place the ham in a baking pan large enough to hold it without crowding the sides; Then put it into the refrigerator to chill.
  • Now, in a 12-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, add the brown sugar, and cook it gently until it dissolves.
  • Then – over medium-high heat—stir in the honey, Coca-Cola, frozen pineapple juice, ginger, mustard, paprika, peppercorns, and red wine vinegar, and stir constantly until all of the ingredients have become thoroughly blended and smooth (should have a semi-thick sauce at this point).
  • Next, using a small ladle, generously baste the ham with the sauce (it should thicken to a glaze if the ham was chilled enough).
  • Lightly cover the ham with plastic wrap and put it back in the refrigerator for at least another hour.
  • When ready to cook: preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Take the ham and score it in diagonal cuts about a half-inch apart and a half-inch deep.
  • Now decorate it with the pineapple slices and cherries – pin the pineapple in place with toothpicks and put a cherry in the center of each slice (also push 4 cloves into each pineapple slice).
  • Generously spoon the basting sauce over the entire dressed ham (you want to use all the sauce).
  • Cover the ham with a “tent” made of aluminum foil (but do not cover it tightly, otherwise the tent will steam out all the natural juices and cause it to be dry).
  • Plan to bake it in the oven for 1 hour, basting occasionally with the marinade drippings that collect in the bottom of the pan.
  • Now remove the aluminum foil tent and bake the ham uncovered for another 35-45 minutes or until beautifully glazed; Continue basting until the marinade sticks to the ham and forms a shiny crust.
  • When it’s cooked, remove from the oven, allow it to set for 15 minutes on the countertop before slicing, and serve it with generous ladle-fulls of the the"secret gravy.
  • ".

Tips:

  • Choose the right ham: Select a fully cooked ham with a bone-in for the best flavor and moisture. Look for a ham that is at least 10 pounds to feed a crowd.
  • Prepare the ham: Remove the ham from its packaging and rinse it under cold water. Pat the ham dry with paper towels and score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern to allow the glaze to penetrate.
  • Make the glaze: Combine brown sugar, pineapple juice, orange juice, honey, Dijon mustard, and spices in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened.
  • Glaze the ham: Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Place the ham in a roasting pan and pour the glaze over the ham. Cover the ham with foil and bake for 1 hour.
  • Baste the ham: Uncover the ham and baste it with the glaze every 20 minutes until the ham is browned and the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C).
  • Let the ham rest: Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the ham.
