Time 3h30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 1/2 lb ham
1 c ginger ale
3/4 c prepared mustard
1/2 c honey
1/2 c light brown sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven at 350 degrees.
  • 2. I slow cooked an 8 1/2 lb ham in a shallow roasting pan for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. I added just a cup of ginger ale to the shallow pan and tented the ham with foil.
  • 3. Prepare glaze: 30 minutes before ham is done cooking, make your glaze in a separate bowl, 3/4 cup of prepared mustard (French's, dijon... whatever your taste), 1/2 cup of honey and a 1/2 cup of light brown sugar.
  • 4. Take ham out of the oven and score the top and smother with glaze. Put back in the oven for at least 10 minutes and add more glaze if desired. Or, what I did was spoon the ginger ale juices back over the glazed ham. Let cook for another 10 minutes and should be ready to serve.
  • 5. As it shows in the picture, I made a side of garlic sour cream mashed potatoes and peas simmered in the ginger ale juice from the ham.

Categories     Ham

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

7 1/2 lbs cured ham (about)
1/2 cup honey
1 tablespoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°.
  • Remove ham from refrigerator 1 hour before cooking to bring to room temperature.
  • Put ham in a roasting pan and place on a rack.
  • Using a knife, score fat on top in a diamond pattern.
  • Mix remaining ingredients in a bowl.
  • Brush about 3/4 of honey mixture on ham with a pastry brush.
  • Bake 2 hours, basting with remaining mixture and pan drippings every 45 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose a fully cooked ham: This will save you time and effort, and ensure that the ham is cooked through.
  • Score the ham: This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and create a crispy crust.
  • Use a sharp knife: This will make it easier to score the ham and slice it after it is cooked.
  • Make the glaze ahead of time: This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
  • Baste the ham frequently: This will help to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Use a meat thermometer: This is the best way to ensure that the ham is cooked to the proper internal temperature.
  • Let the ham rest before carving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Honey ginger glazed ham is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and savory glaze, combined with the tender ham, creates a truly unforgettable meal. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a dish that will impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
