Sweet Sticky Ham Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together.
• To use the glaze, remove your ham from the oven when there's 30 minutes left. Pour off any drippings that have accumulated in your pan. Take a sharp knife and score the ham in a criss-cross pattern. If it's a spiral ham, making a set of vertical cuts should be fine. Use about a third of the glaze to coat the ham, and return to 400°F oven for 8-10 minutes.
• Repeat applications of the glaze 1-2 more times, returning the ham to cook for about 8 to 10 minutes after each application of the glaze. Be sure not to use glaze in the bottom of the pan - this will dull the sheen.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Let the ham sit at room temperature for 30 minutes and trim off any skin. If your ham is not a spiral-cut ham, use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat.
• Place the ham, flat side down, on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Pour 1 cup water into the pan. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (about 15 minutes per pound-reduce the time to 10 minutes per pound for a spiral-cut ham).
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the brown sugar, maple syrup, soy sauce, orange zest and juice, Dijon, vinegar, cinnamon, cloves, onion powder and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the glaze has thickened and reduced by half (you should have 1 cup glaze), 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside until the ham is ready.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Brush half of the glaze over the ham. If the water in the bottom of the pan has evaporated, add 1 cup water. Return the ham to the oven and roast for 30 minutes, brushing with the remaining glaze every 10 minutes (two more times) before returning to the oven.
• Let the ham cool for 15 minutes before thinly slicing.

Steps:

• Place the brown sugar, molasses, mustard, bourbon, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper in a mixing bowl and stir until the sugar has dissolved.

Steps:

• Set aside Pineapple Slices.
• Mix pineapple juice, brown sugar, butter, and molasses, in saucepan and heat until bubbly stirring continuously. Continue cooking for 10 minutes (the mixture will thicken only slightly). Then add the crushed cookies.
• Continue simmering and stirring while the mixture reduces by about 1/3. This will take about 15 minutes more.
• If you still desire a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch and water to make a slurry.
• Continue stirring the boiling sugar/juice mixture while adding slurry. You may not need to add all of the slurry, depending upon how thick you like the glaze.
• Cook for five minutes longer. The glaze should be quite thick and will easily coat the back of a spoon.
• 30 minutes before ham is finished cooking, use toothpicks to attach slices of pineapple all over outside of ham.
• Cook ham for an additional 30 minutes.
• Pour half of glaze over ham and pineapple slices.
• Reserve additional glaze for individual servings.

Steps:

• Score surface of ham, making diamond shapes 1/4-in. deep. Insert a clove in each diamond. Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan; pour ginger ale into pan. Loosely cover with foil. Bake at 325° for 1 hour. , In a small bowl, combine the spreadable fruit, brown sugar, mustard and ginger; brush some over ham. , Bake, uncovered, for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until a thermometer reads 140° and ham is heated through, brushing occasionally with glaze. Serve with remaining glaze.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place ham on a rack set in a roasting pan, and carefully pour about 1/2 inch of boiling water into the pan beneath the ham.
• Bake the ham in the preheated oven for 2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat (do not touch the bone) reads at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C.)
• Reduce oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.) In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, flour, dry mustard, honey, and lemon juice as needed to make a thick, smooth paste. Brush the ham generously with glaze. Skewer 1 pineapple chunk and 1 maraschino cherry per toothpick, and insert the decorated picks all over the ham.
• Return the ham to the oven, and roast for 15 minutes. Baste the ham, fruit and all, with glaze and juices that have collected in the bottom of the pan, return to the oven, and roast for an additional 15 minutes. Let the ham rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
