The Best Pineapple Glaze For Ham W Brown Sugar Recipes

BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Take ham out of the refrigerator 1-2 hours before baking to allow it to come to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze. In a saucepan combine pineapple tidbits, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 20-30 minutes or until mixture has thickened.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Remove ham from packaging and throw away the glaze packet and the plastic disk that covers the bone.
• Place the ham flat/cut side down, in a deep baking dish or roasting pan. I like to line my pan with aluminum foil to make for easier clean-up.
• Brush just a few spoonfuls of the glaze onto the ham, all over the outside. Reserve the remaining glaze for later.
• Cover the ham tightly with a tent of aluminum foil. This will help keep the ham from drying out.
• Bake at 300 degrees F for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until internal temperature reaches 110 degrees. Note, the ham is already cooked, so we're just just trying to reheat it.
• Remove the ham from the oven and remove foil tent (set it aside for later).
• Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees. Brush the remaining glaze all over the ham.
• Return to the oven and continue to bake for another 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven, tent with foil and allow to rest for 15 minutes before serving.

BROWN SUGAR PINEAPPLE HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Using a sharp knife, score surface of ham with 1/2-in.-deep cuts in a diamond pattern. Cover and bake 1-1/2 hours., In a small bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Spread over ham, pressing mixture into cuts. Bake ham, uncovered, 30-60 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 140°.

BROWN SUGAR AND PINEAPPLE GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place the ham, cut side down, into a roasting pan.
• Cut the skin off the pineapple with a sharp knife and cut out any brown spots of skin left behind. Slice the pineapple into 1/2-inch slices and cut the cores out of the slices. Pin the slices onto the ham with toothpicks.
• Bake ham in the preheated oven until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham reads 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• While the ham is baking, mix the pineapple juice and brown sugar in a microwave-safe ceramic or glass bowl and microwave on medium power until the glaze is boiling and slightly thickened. Work carefully because the glaze will be sticky and very hot.
• Pour about half the glaze evenly over the ham and pineapple about 1 hour before the end of baking; pour the rest over the ham about 30 minutes before the end of baking.

HONEY-MUSTARD HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Mix honey, mustard, brown sugar, and pineapple juice in a bowl until well combined.

BOURBON-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes about 1/2-inch deep. Place the ham in a large, resealable bag. Add the bourbon, brown sugar, crushed pineapple, honey, and garlic to the bag; refrigerate at least 8 hours, turning the bag over several times while marinating.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Transfer the ham and marinade to a large baking dish; pour the water into the dish. Attach the pineapple rings around the surface of the ham with toothpicks.
• Bake in preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (95 degrees C), basting occasionally with the sauce in the pan, 90 to 105 minutes.
