Sweet & Spicy Broiled Ham Steak image

I love a good ham steak. It's the easy way to have some ham without baking a huge traditional ham. In the meat section of the market, you can buy these nice thick ham steaks and have a quick dinner that evening. This glaze is awesome and perfect for ham!

SPICY HONEY-GLAZED HAM

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 8-pound fully cooked bone-in half ham (shank or butt)
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup honey
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup dijon mustard
1/2 cup whole-grain mustard
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons hot sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Bring the ham to room temperature 1 hour before baking.

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the lowest position; preheat to 350 degrees F. Trim off any skin from the ham, leaving a 1/4-inch layer of fat. Score the fat with a sharp knife in a 1-inch crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Place the ham flat-side down in a roasting pan and add the chicken broth to the pan. Cover with foil and bake 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the honey, brown sugar, mustards, vinegar, hot sauce, thyme and red pepper flakes in a medium bowl. Remove 3/4 cup of the glaze to a separate bowl and set aside for serving. Remove the ham from the oven, discard the foil and brush with about one-quarter of the remaining glaze. Continue baking, brushing with the glaze and the pan juices every 30 minutes, until the ham is a deep reddish-brown and a thermometer inserted into the center registers 140 degrees F, 1 to 1 1/2 more hours. (Add 1/2 cup water to the pan if the juices dry out.)
  • Transfer the ham to a cutting board and let rest 20 minutes before slicing. Serve with the reserved glaze.

SPICY HAM SLICE/STEAK



Spicy Ham Slice/Steak image

I'm not a big ham fan but I just LOVE this dish. Easy to do, very forgiving - you can substitute different kinds of juice or soda. Ham steaks freeze well and thaw fast so it's good for a week night. Fairly economical if you get the ham on sale. I love to have it with orange rice where I substitute about a half a cup of OJ for water with plain old white or even brown rice, and a nice green salad. Enjoy!

Categories     Ham

Time 1h

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 slice ham steak
1/2 cup orange juice (apricot or pineapple work well, too, so does Tang!)
1/2 cup ginger ale (or Sprite, 7-Up or a cola drink)
1/2 cup packed brown sugar (I usually use light)
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Prick ham slice with a fork all over to make holes and slash the edges so it won't curl during baking.
  • Place in baking dish just big enough to hold slice.
  • Mix all other ingredients together well and pour over ham.
  • Marinate at least 30 minutes but can be longer (some times I do it in a baggie overnight).
  • Put in 350* oven, bake for about 30 minutes. Mmmm!

SWEET STEAK



Sweet Steak image

You can use any tender cut of grillable steak...ribeye, top sirloin, NY strip, high qualty London broil, etc. Prep time includes resting time.

Provided by Parsley

Categories     Steak

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 lbs top sirloin steaks (or ribeyes, NY strip)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix together sugar, salt, pepper, cayenne, black pepper and garlic powder.
  • Rub all sides of the steaks with this mixture. Cover and allow to rest for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, preheat the grill to high or preheat the broiler.
  • Grill or broil over high heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side (depending on the thickness of your steaks) or until desired doneness is reached.

Tips:

  • To ensure the ham steak is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 140°F (60°C) for medium-rare, 145°F (63°C) for medium, and 150°F (66°C) for well done.
  • To make the glaze, use a combination of brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. This will give the ham steak a sweet and tangy flavor.
  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use yellow mustard instead.
  • To add a bit of spice to the dish, sprinkle some cayenne pepper or chili powder over the ham steak before cooking.
  • Serve the ham steak with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
