Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven at 350 degrees.
- 2. I slow cooked an 8 1/2 lb ham in a shallow roasting pan for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. I added just a cup of ginger ale to the shallow pan and tented the ham with foil.
- 3. Prepare glaze: 30 minutes before ham is done cooking, make your glaze in a separate bowl, 3/4 cup of prepared mustard (French's, dijon... whatever your taste), 1/2 cup of honey and a 1/2 cup of light brown sugar.
- 4. Take ham out of the oven and score the top and smother with glaze. Put back in the oven for at least 10 minutes and add more glaze if desired. Or, what I did was spoon the ginger ale juices back over the glazed ham. Let cook for another 10 minutes and should be ready to serve.
- 5. As it shows in the picture, I made a side of garlic sour cream mashed potatoes and peas simmered in the ginger ale juice from the ham.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°.
- Remove ham from refrigerator 1 hour before cooking to bring to room temperature.
- Put ham in a roasting pan and place on a rack.
- Using a knife, score fat on top in a diamond pattern.
- Mix remaining ingredients in a bowl.
- Brush about 3/4 of honey mixture on ham with a pastry brush.
- Bake 2 hours, basting with remaining mixture and pan drippings every 45 minutes.
- Remove from oven and serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- For the best results, use a fully cooked ham. Pre-cooked hams typically have a pink color due to the curing process and are safe to eat without further cooking.
- Use a sharp knife to score the ham. This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and create a crispy crust.
- Use a good quality honey. Raw, unfiltered honey has a more robust flavor and will add more depth to the glaze.
- Fresh ginger adds a bright, zesty flavor to the glaze. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger, but reduce the amount to 1/2 teaspoon.
- Use a pastry brush to apply the glaze to the ham. This will help you get an even coating and prevent the glaze from dripping off.
- Bake the ham in a preheated oven. This will help the glaze caramelize and create a crispy crust.
- Let the ham rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the meat more tender.
Conclusion:
Honey ginger glazed ham is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet honey and spicy ginger creates a unique and flavorful glaze that will impress your guests. Whether you are serving it as a main course or an appetizer, this ham is sure to be a hit.
