Root beer ham is a dish that combines the classic flavors of ham and root beer to create a sweet and savory dish. The ham is typically cooked in a slow cooker with root beer, brown sugar, and spices. As the ham cooks, it absorbs the flavors of the root beer and brown sugar, resulting in a tender and flavorful dish. The ham can be served hot or cold, and it is often accompanied by sides such as mashed potatoes, green beans, and coleslaw. Root beer ham is a popular dish for family gatherings and special occasions.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place the ham in a broiling pan and cut shallow gashes in a criss-cross pattern across the top half. Combine the brown sugar and the dry mustard and pat it all over the ham. Put the ham in the oven. Combine all the other ingredients in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower to a simmer, and cook until the liquid volume is reduced to about one cup and then strain. Spoon some of the glaze over the top of the ham. Spoon more glaze, at 15-minute intervals, until it is all gone. Continue baking until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 160°F on a meat thermometer. Remove from oven and allow to rest for about one hour before carving.
Tips:
- Use a good-quality root beer. A higher quality root beer will result in a tastier ham.
- Don't boil the ham. Boiling the ham will toughen it. Instead, simmer it over low heat.
- Baste the ham frequently. Basting the ham will help to keep it moist and flavorful.
- Cook the ham to the proper internal temperature. The internal temperature of the ham should reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 150 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the ham rest before carving. Letting the ham rest will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful ham.
Conclusion:
Root beer ham is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can create a root beer ham that is sure to impress your family and friends. This unique and flavorful dish is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
