2 kg mild-cure ham

  • Preheat oven to 240 C degrees.

  • Use a sharp knife to make large diamond shapes in the fat.

Tips:

  • To ensure the ham 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, or 150°F (66°C) for well-done.
  • To enhance the flavor and crispiness of the ham, baste it with the Coke and brown sugar glaze frequently during the baking process.
  • For a sweeter glaze, add more brown sugar to your taste. If you prefer a tangy glaze, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of vinegar.
  • To create a delicious sauce, reserve the remaining Coca-Cola and brown sugar glaze from the baking pan. Simmer it over medium heat until thickened, and serve it alongside the ham.
  • Experiment with different types of ham. A smoked ham will impart a smoky flavor to the dish, while a honey-baked ham will add a sweet and savory taste.

Conclusion:

The Baked Coca-Cola Ham is an easy-to-make and flavorful dish that's perfect for any occasion. With its tender and juicy meat, crispy glaze, and irresistible aroma, this ham is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
