- 1. Preheat oven to 350°. With the side of a large knife, scrape both sides of country ham to remove any whiteish residue from the ham, if there is any. (This is an important step). Discard residue. Do not remove fat from the ham at this point. Place country ham in a 9 x 13 baking dish or a large iron skillet. Pour about 1/2 can of coke over ham, this depends on how many slices you are preparing. (I usually cook 2 large slices and use 1/2 can [6 ozs.] of coke). Cover ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake about 20 minutes or until tender. Be sure and reserve juices from ham. Trim the fat from the ham. In a skillet on top of the stove, pour reserved ham juices, add sugar or packet of sweetner and about 1/2 cup brewed coffee. Heat until boiling. Pour into serving container. Enjoy with ham, some hot biscuits and scrambled eggs.
