EASY MOIST HAM



Easy Moist Ham image

I made this ham for Christmas this year. It was delicious! It's very easy to do and my family loved the crunchiness of the crust baked on it. It was very moist. I watched for hams to go on sale and bought a spiral cut 1/2 ham since we only have 5 people (adults). We had enough for leftover sandwiches and then I made a pea soup too!

Time 5h15m

Yield 1 Large bowl each, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 spiral cut ham (any kind, I used Safeway brand)
1 cup applesauce
1/2 cup brown sugar (I used the Splenda kind, my fiancees diabetic)
4 tablespoons yellow mustard (Or any mustard you like(I used the cheap yellow mustard)

Steps:

  • Foil line a lipped baking sheet.
  • Place the ham with the large side down on the foil.
  • Mix the applesauce, brown sugar and mustard in a bowl and then use your hands to cover the ham all the way around.
  • Cover ham with foil.
  • Put it into a 350 degree oven at 350 degrees for 14 minutes per pound.
  • After it's done cooking (about an hour for a 4 lb ham), take off the foil and use your hands to cover the ham again in the sauce. Lather it on their well to create a crust.
  • Bake some more until the crust is crispy.
  • When done, let the ham rest for about 1/2 an hour.
  • Then spoon the pan drippings in between the slices for more goodly sweetness.
  • Serve while warm --I served it with cheesy mashed potatoes with sour cream and chives and cheese and brocolli. (My family are cheese-aholics).
  • Served with some warned up buns from the baker and sweet cream salted butter.
  • Enjoy!
  • Save the leftovers for ham sandwiches (I just left it in the fridge and people made what they wanted with leftover ham and rolls.).
  • Take the end part of the ham and put it in a big (like a tamale pan) pot, add carrotts, onions, peas and chicken stock to cover. Add some spices that you like (I put in some ginger and salsa--Mrs. Dash and salt and pepper). We ate that with rolls for Christmas dinner after going to the movies all day.
  • So, three meals in one ham! Total cost for all three meals for 5 people was less than $10. Including purchasing all the ingredients (except spices, carrots and onions I had on hand).
  • This'd be a great Easter recipe too!

Tips:

  • For a tender and juicy ham, choose a bone-in variety. The bone helps to retain moisture during cooking.
  • Score the ham all over before baking. This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and create a crispy crust.
  • Place the ham on a roasting rack in a baking pan. This will allow the fat to drain away from the meat as it cooks.
  • Baste the ham with the glaze every 20-30 minutes during baking. This will help to keep the meat moist and flavorful.
  • Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

A perfectly cooked ham is a centerpiece of any holiday meal. With just a few simple steps, you can create a moist, tender, and flavorful ham that your family and friends will love. So next time you're planning a special occasion dinner, don't forget to add ham to your menu.
