Pioneer Woman Ham Glaze Recipes

GLAZED EASTER HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325˚.
• Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern about 1/8-inch deep. Place cloves in the middle of each diamond. Place the ham in a large roasting pan with a rack, tent it with foil, and bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours-or longer, depending on the package directions. (Some hams may require 3 to 3 1/2 hours at a lower temp; just check the package.)
• Heat the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar and soda in a small saucepan until bubbly. Cook until reduced and a bit thicker, about 15 minutes.
• After about 2 hours of baking time, remove the foil and brush the glaze on the ham in 20 minutes intervals (put the ham back in the oven, uncovered, in between) until it's nice and glossy. Remove from the oven and allow to rest 15-20 minutes before carving.

GLAZED PINEAPPLE HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Shingle the ham slices in 2 rows on a ceramic baking dish. Top each with a pineapple slice, then place a cherry in the middle of each pineapple ring. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
• Whisk together the brown sugar, apple juice and mustard. Remove the ham from the oven, uncover and drizzle with the glaze. Continue to bake, glazing in 5-minute intervals, for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Serve in the baking dish.

HONEY-MUSTARD GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• For the ham: Preheat the oven to 325 ̊ Fahrenheit. Score the surface of the ham with a sharp knife in a diamond pattern, about 1/4 inch deep. Stick the cloves in between the diamonds.
• Place the ham on a rack in a large roasting pan, tent it with foil and bake until warmed through, about 2 hours.
• For the glaze: Mix the mustard, honey and pepper in a medium bowl.
• Remove the ham from the oven and uncover. Brush with half of the glaze, making sure to get it in the scored lines. Return to the oven, uncovered, and hake until the ham looks glossy, about 20 minutes. Brush with the remaining glaze and bake until just beginning to caramelize, about 20 more minutes.
• Remove the ham from the oven and let rest 15 to 20 minutes.

AMAZING GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Let the ham sit at room temperature for 1 hour before baking. This will allow it to cook evenly.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Make the glaze: In a medium pot over medium-high heat, combine the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, cinnamon, paprika, chili powder, orange zest and juice, garlic and some salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Place a rack in a roasting pan. Put the ham on the rack large open-face down (so the spiral cuts are stacked on top of one another). Brush half of the glaze over the surface of the ham, getting it between the slices as much as you can.
• Pour about an inch of water in the base of the roasting pan; the water should not touch the ham. Tent the pan loosely with aluminum foil and bake for about 10 minutes per pound (1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes).
• Take the ham out of the oven and remove the foil. Raise the oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Brush half of the remaining glaze on the ham. When the oven is up to temperature, return the ham, uncovered, and bake for 15 minutes. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham and cook for another 15 minutes.
• Carefully transfer the ham to a platter. Serve right away, or cover with foil and take it to your gathering!
