STAY MOIST OVEN BAKED HAM IN A BAG

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Rub ham with brown sugar.
• Secure pineapple rings onto ham, fat side up, using toothpicks.
• Add 2 tbls flour to cooking bag, and shake it to coat.
• Place bag in roaster and place ham fat side up in the bag.
• Pour reserved pineapple juice gently over ham.
• Close bag with nylon tie included with bag.
• Cut six 1" slits in top of bag for steam escape.

ALWAYS JUICY BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk beer, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard together in a bowl.
• Place ham cut side up in a large roasting pan; pour beer mixture over ham.
• Bake in the preheated oven until ham begins to brown, about 15 minutes, basting 4 to 5 times.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cover roasting pan with lid or aluminum foil.
• Continue to bake until ham is heated through, about 90 minutes more, basting frequently.
• Remove lid and bake until ham is well browned, about 15 minutes more. Allow ham to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving.

SAVORY SPIRAL CUT HAM

Steps:

• You will also need: 1 large Reynolds Oven Cooking Bag (turkey size).
• Heat the oven to 325°F.
• Put the flour into the cooking bag and shake the bag until it is completely covered with the flour.
• Do not remove remaining flour from the bag (I didn't anyway).
• This prevents the bag from exploding in the oven while baking.
• Place the bag in a large cake pan or a roasting pan.
• Open the bag and put the ham in it, cut side down.
• Set aside.
• In a small sauce pan mix the chicken broth, honey glaze mix, mustard and orange juice over medium heat until the glaze mix and orange juice concentrate are dissolved.
• Pour it over the ham.
• With a tie that came with the bag, tightly seal the bag.
• Cut 6-1 inch slits into the top and upper sides of the bag to allow steam to escape.
• Make sure the bag is completely inside the pan.
• Do not allow any of it to hang over the sides of the pan.
• Place on middle rack of the oven, allowing enough room for the bag to expand without touching the top heating coil.
• This prevents the bag from melting.
• Bake for approximately 1 hour or until the ham slices begin to separate and the top of the ham starts to brown.
• Lower the oven temp to 200°F and let the ham sit in the oven until the rest of the meal is ready.
• You could probably lower it to 175°F if you want to.
• Spiral cut ham is precooked so it does not have to reach a certain temperature.
• You are just warming it or making it hot for a hot meal.
• When you are ready, remove the ham from the oven.
• Allow it to cool enough to touch the bag.
• Remove the tie from the bag and slowly tear the bag open at the top of it.
• Remove ham and place it on a large plate or a platter.
• Allow to cool slightly before cutting it.
• Pour the juices from the baking/roasting into a saucepan and make gravy with it or pour it into a container and save it for soup.
• Taste the juice from the ham.
• If it is very strong tasting, (mine was) you may need to add water, a little at a time until it is at your desired strength.
• Save the ham bone to make ham stock or soup with, leaving some of the meat on the bone.

AWESOME BAKED HAM

Steps:

• In a medium size mixing bowl, mix yellow mustard and brown sugar until you have a thick"paste".
• Take all wrappers off of ham and trim away excess fat.
• Line baking pan (I spray with Pam in case some of the brown sugar mixture escapes, clean up is easier) with Aluminum foil.
• Place ham on foil and spread brown sugar/mustard paste on top.
• Fold and seal foil.
• Do not open again until ham is done.
• Bake at 350° for 4 hours.
• Let set for about 1 hr then carve.
• One of the best tasting hams you will ever have!
