Baked Ham with Balsamic Brown Sugar Glaze image

A gorgeous, juicy ham is the centerpiece of many holiday tables, and we think that this simple (and simply stunning, when you taste it) recipe should be the next one you try. It starts with a pre-cooked ham (which you can learn more about in our handy article that covers all the details of how to cook a ham) and from there, an easy glaze does the work of adding flavor and a glossy appearance. Sweet-on-sweet glazes were more popular in the past, but this updated-yet-accessible version strikes an ideal balance between sweet and acidic, the perfect complements to naturally salty ham. The hardest part about this six-ingredient recipe? Waiting to carve yourself a succulent slice-after all, a good host lets their guests go first.

BAKED HAM WITH GLAZE



Baked Ham with Glaze image

This is a favorite on Easter. Everyone kept going back until the ham was gone. They loved this glaze which, by the way, I got from a church member.

Provided by Beverly McDonald

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pork     Ham     Whole

Time 1h40m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (6 pound) bone-in whole ham
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons ginger ale
2 tablespoons dry mustard
⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place ham in a large baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Whisk brown sugar, ginger ale, mustard, and cinnamon together in a bowl; brush over ham. Continue baking ham until the meat pulls away easily from the bone, about 45 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Choose the right ham: Select a fully cooked ham that is at least 10 pounds for a large gathering or 7 pounds for a smaller group. Look for a ham with a good layer of fat, as this will help keep it moist during baking.
  • Preheat your oven: Before you start cooking the ham, preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe. This will help ensure that the ham cooks evenly.
  • Score the ham: Use a sharp knife to score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern. This will help the glaze penetrate the ham and create a delicious crust.
  • Make the brown sugar glaze: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, butter, honey, Dijon mustard, and spices. Mix until well combined.
  • Glaze the ham: Brush the ham with the brown sugar glaze. Be sure to get the glaze into all the crevices. Repeat the glazing process every 15-20 minutes during baking.
  • Cover the ham: Once the ham is fully glazed, cover it with foil. This will help keep the ham moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Bake the ham: Bake the ham according to the recipe instructions. The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the ham.
  • Let the ham rest: Once the ham is cooked, let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the ham.

Conclusion:

Baking a ham with a brown sugar glaze is a delicious and easy way to feed a crowd. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a ham that is both flavorful and moist. Whether you are serving it for a holiday meal or a special occasion, this ham is sure to be a hit.
