BAKED HAM RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325ºF.
• Scrub the skin of the ham with cold water. Pat dry. Place the ham, fat side up, on a rack in a pan. Add a little water. Bake the ham according to the directions on the package or follow the table below.
• A thermometer will register 165ºF when the ham is cooked.
• Remove the ham from the oven. Remove the rind (skin) by loosening with a sharp knife as the rind is pulled gently up from the ham.
• Score the fat into a diamond shape using a sharp knife. Do not cut too deeply or you will expose the meat and it can dry out.
• You can stick a whole clove into each of the places where the cuts meet. Glaze ham with your favorite ham glaze recipes.
• Bake the ham at 400ºF to brown and set the glaze.
• For smaller hams, please see the table below.

BAKED HAM AND CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
• To a large bowl add the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and whisk to combine.
• Add 1 cup cheese, ham, green onions, and stir to combine.
• Pour mixture into prepared baking dish.
• Evenly sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
• Bake for about 55 to 60 minutes (I baked 58 minutes), or until eggs are cooked and omelet is set. Because all ovens and pans vary, start checking at 40 minutes and bake until done.
• Garnish with green onions to taste and serve immediately. Omelet is best warm and fresh but extra will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 4 days; reheat gently.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F.
• Remove the packaging and the plastic disk from the bottom of the ham. Place ham in a shallow roasting pan, cut side down.
• Bake for 13-16 minutes per pound until ham reaches 135°F.
• Combine glaze ingredients in a small bowl and mix well.
• Once the ham reaches 135°F, remove it from the oven. Turn the oven up to 425°F. Brush the ham generously with the honey glaze. (I do 2-3 coats of glaze).
• Return to the oven for 15-20 minutes or until ham reaches 140°F and glaze is browned.
• Remove the ham from the oven and rest at least 15 minutes before cutting. Spoon juices over the ham before serving if desired.

BAKED HAM WITH BROWN SUGAR GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Combine dijon mustard and pineapple juice. Brush over ham.
• If your ham has a plastic disk on the bone, this should be removed and discarded. Place the ham, flat side down in a roasting pan, and cover tightly with foil. Roast 12-15 minutes per pound (or according to package directions).
• Meanwhile, combine glaze ingredients and bring to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer 2-3 minutes. Cool.
• 15 minutes before ham is done, remove from the oven and turn the oven up to 425°F.
• Brush with glaze and return to the oven until the glaze is caramelized and the ham has reached the safe cook temperature.

Steps:

• Trim ham if needed, then place in slow cooker. Combine melted butter and honey, then massage over ham, getting in between the slices a little. Cover and cook on LOW 4-5 hours.
• At the end of the cooking time, preheat broiler to HIGH, and line a roasting pan with heavy duty aluminum foil.
• Combine sugar, seasoned salt, onion powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, ground cloves, paprika and allspice in a small bowl. Pat half of the sugar mixture over the top of the ham.
• Broil for several minutes, until bubbly and caramelized, then remove from oven.
• To a small saucepan, add remaining sugar mixture. Add 3 Tbsp of either water or ham juices from bottom of the slow cooker. A combination of water/ham juice and bourbon is a nice alternative! Stir, and heat to a boil. Boil for about a minute, then remove from heat.
• Brush or pour glaze over the ham, then broil again for a minute or two (careful... don't let it burn!). Remove from oven and let ham rest for 5-10 minutes.
• Serve warm or cold and enjoy!

BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Remove the skin from the ham, if necessary, leaving at least a one-half-inch-thick layer of fat around it. Score the ham, place it in a large baking pan and pour the vinegar over it. Combine half of the ground cloves, all the nutmeg and pepper and rub all over the ham.
• Bake for 30 minutes. Lower the temperature to 325 degrees and bake for three and one-half hours.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, mace, mustard, orange juice and remaining ground cloves. After the baking is finished, turn off the oven and brush the ham with the mixture. Return the ham to the turned-off oven for 30 minutes.

BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place ham in a roasting pan, and press whole cloves into the top at 1 to 2 inch intervals. Pack the top with a layer of brown sugar. Pour enough water into the bottom of the roasting pan to come to a 1 inch depth. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil or a lid.
• Bake for 4 1/2 to 5 hours in the preheated oven (about 22 minutes per pound), or until the internal temperature of the ham has reached 160 degrees F (72 degrees C). Make sure the meat thermometer is not touching the bone. Let stand for about 20 minutes before carving.
