Baked Pepsi Ham Recipes

COLA-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Place brown sugar in a bowl; whisk in just enough cola to dissolve sugar and form a thick glaze. Place ham in baking dish and pour glaze over ham. Add remaining cola to bottom of baking dish.
• Bake ham in the preheated oven, basting with the glaze occasionally, for 2 hours.
• Transfer ham to a serving platter; tent with foil for up to 30 minutes before serving.

GLAZED BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. (135 degrees C).
• Remove any visible excess fat from ham. Place the ham in a large turkey roasting oven bag and place in a baking dish.
• Pour cola over ham, remove as much air as possible and seal bag.
• Prick a few holes in bag to let steam escape and bake for 4 to 5 hours. Pour off excess juice and slice.

COLA GLAZED HAM RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325º F. Place ham in a roasting pan. Combine Coca-Cola and brown sugar and pour over ham. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Every 30 minutes, uncover the ham and baste well with the pan juices and then recover the ham. Bake 20 minutes per pound, until the thickest part of the ham registers 140º F on a meat thermometer, about 2 hours. Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes of cooking time so that after the final glaze, the glaze is able to caramelize on the ham
• Remove roasting pan from the oven and baste again. Let the ham stand for about 15 minutes, remove the ham from the roasting pan and onto a platter for serving.

BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Ham labeled "Cook Before Eating"
• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place the ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. For a whole 10- to 15-pound ham, allow 18 to 20 minutes per pound; for a half--5 to 7 pounds--about 20 minutes per pound; or for a shank or butt portion weighing 3 to 4 pounds, about 35 minutes to the pound. In all cases, cook uncovered until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. For an attractive, quick finish, remove the ham from the oven about 30 minutes before it is done and glaze as directed below.
• II. Ham labeled "Fully Cooked" or "Ready to Eat"
• Preheat the oven to 325°F. To heat the ham, place it on a rack in a shallow roasting pan, and bake uncovered. For a whole ham, allow 15 to 18 minutes to the pound; for a half, 18 to 24 minutes per pound. The ham will be ready when the internal temperature reaches 140°F. To glaze the ham, remove it from the oven about 30 minutes before it is done, and increase the oven heat to 425°F. Remove all the rind but a collar around the shank bone. Slash the fat in the top of the ham in a diamond pattern, and cover the surface with brown sugar, dry mustard moistened with cider vinegar, prune juice, wine or ham drippings.
• Stud the fat at the intersections of the diamonds with whole cloves. Or decorate with alternating half pineapple rings studded with cranberries and stars cut from preserved orange peel.
• Return the ham to the oven, reduce the oven heat to 325°F again, and cook about 30 minutes. Place on a platter. Garnish with: Slices of jellied cranberry sauce topped with thin orange or pineapple slices.

COCA-COLA BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet (or roasting pan) with foil. Place the ham in the pan.
• In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, Dijon mustard, cornstarch, and cayenne pepper.
• Rub the brown sugar mixture over the ham and down in between the slices.
• Pour the cola over the ham. Cover the ham loosely with foil. Bake for 1 hour.
• Take the ham out of the oven. Remove the foil. Spoon or brush the pan juices up over the ham. Place it back in the oven and bake another 30 minutes, uncovered.
• Brush the ham with glaze a second time. Bake another 30 minutes, uncovered.
• When ready to serve, brush the glaze over the ham one last time.

SUPER EASY BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and make sure the racks are all the way on the bottom so there is plenty of room for the ham.
• Bring ham in packaging to sink and have a pan big enough to hold it nearby. I find a 9"x13" baking pan works great. Make sure your pan is at least an inch deep.
• Take ham out of wrapper and rinse it with cool water if you think it feels icky. Then find the plastic doohickey on the large cut end and remove it. At this point you can trim off some of the fat if you would like. I usually don't, as most of it renders out into the pan or is very easy to cut around.
• Place ham in pan with large cut side down.
• Stab with the business end of a probe style thermometer. This is the kind which has a long metal skewer on one end (the business end), a long cable, and a box which has all the controls and readouts. Make sure the probe goes through a large area of meat, not fat, and doesn't hit one of the bones down the center of the ham. Set your thermometer to alert you when the ham reaches 140°F.
• When your oven has reached 350F, put the ham in (be careful, it's heavy).
• Wait until the thermometer alerts you. Then remove the ham from the oven (remember, it's heavy and now it's really hot, too). Remove the probe, and either start slicing or put on a pretty platter and let your family/guests ooh and ahh. :).
• NOTE: The skin gets very black and crispy. Do not panic, the meat is juicy, I promise. Simply cut the skin off where it is really crispy and get to the meat underneath.
• ALSO: If you do not have a probe style meat thermometer, or need an idea of timing for preparing the rest of your meal, an already cooked (city) ham will reheat to 140F in approximately 15 minutes per pound. So a 12 pound ham will take 3 hours. Ish.
• And FINALLY: I like to carve off the leftovers and separate into 1 pound amounts. I then put these into labeled quart sized freezer bags and freeze for casseroles, pasta, or beans another night. The bone can be put into a labeled gallon sized freezer bag, and then thawed for yummy beans another night.

BAKED HAM FOR DIABETICS

Steps:

• Unwrap ham and place in roasting pan with lid.
• Place your pineapple rings on top, securing with toothpicks.
• Pour the can of diet Pepsi over top of the ham, cover and bake approximately 4.5 hours or until internal temp reaches 140°F.
• Remove from oven and let rest at least 15 minutes.
• Slice and serve.
• Note: the cooking time includes the resting time. I would think that this would turn out to be lower carb and sugar than the normal baked ham with the fruity sauces.

COCA-COLA GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• NOTE: Remove ham from refrigerator 1 hour before baking.

PEPSI HAM

Steps:

• Take and wash off the ham; place into crock-pot.
• Then add onion, sugar and Pepsi.
• Cook on high for 1 to 2 hours, and then turn to low for several more hours. Ham will fall apart and then you can remove the bone.

BAKED PEPSI HAM

Steps:

• 1. Place ham in a roasting pan. Pour Pepsi over ham and seal pan with foil.
• 2. Bake in 325 oven, basting occasionally, 60 minutes. Remove foil and turn ham. Baste again and bake another 30 minutes.
• 3. Note: For a larger ham use 2 cans of Pepsi and bake 15 minutes per pound.
