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.

SWEET STICKY HAM GLAZE



Sweet Sticky Ham Glaze image

This glaze came about when the ham my friend bought for Easter dinner didn't have the typical glaze packet included. Together we hit on this concoction that everyone at dinner thought was yummy! We wanted to make enough glaze that we could serve it at the table for individual slices - this way, the person who gets the end of the ham doesn't get all of the glaze and if you get a regular slice you only get a little on the outside. Everyone is able to have glaze with their ham.

Categories     Ham

Time 45m

Yield 2 cups, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (20 ounce) can pineapple slices, juice reserved
1 cup pineapple juice (use juice from slices and add enough water to equal 1 Cup)
1 cup brown sugar (packed)
8 tablespoons butter (1 stick)
1/2 cup molasses
4 -6 gingersnap cookies (crushed very fine, I use Anna's from Ikea)
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup cold water

Steps:

  • Set aside Pineapple Slices.
  • Mix pineapple juice, brown sugar, butter, and molasses, in saucepan and heat until bubbly stirring continuously. Continue cooking for 10 minutes (the mixture will thicken only slightly). Then add the crushed cookies.
  • Continue simmering and stirring while the mixture reduces by about 1/3. This will take about 15 minutes more.
  • If you still desire a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch and water to make a slurry.
  • Continue stirring the boiling sugar/juice mixture while adding slurry. You may not need to add all of the slurry, depending upon how thick you like the glaze.
  • Cook for five minutes longer. The glaze should be quite thick and will easily coat the back of a spoon.
  • 30 minutes before ham is finished cooking, use toothpicks to attach slices of pineapple all over outside of ham.
  • Cook ham for an additional 30 minutes.
  • Pour half of glaze over ham and pineapple slices.
  • Reserve additional glaze for individual servings.
