Bourbon Pineapple And Orange Glazed Holiday Ham Recipes

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.

BOURBON, PINEAPPLE AND ORANGE GLAZED HOLIDAY HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Using a sharp knife, score the ham into a diamond pattern about 1/4-inch deep and 1-inch apart.
• Stud the ham with whole cloves in the center of each diamond.
• Place ham fat side up in a shallow roasting pan (for easy clean-up line pan with aluminum foil, or use a heavy-duty disposable aluminum pan).
• Bake ham for 2 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, stir together the brown sugar, bourbon, orange marmalade, crushed pineapple, and prepared mustard. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved.
• Remove ham from the oven.
• Spoon half of the glaze/sauce over the ham.
• Decorate ham with pineapple rings, using a few toothpicks to hold ring in place. Place a cherry in the center of each ring, and attach it with a toothpick.
• Return ham to the oven and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes.
• Transfer ham to a platter and allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving (be sure to remove all toothpicks).
• Pass the remaining sauce at the table.

ORANGE PINEAPPLE GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and set out a large roasting pan.
• To a small bowl, add the brown sugar, thyme, allspice, cinnamon, orange zest, and stir to combine.
• Rub this all over the ham.
• Tightly wrap the ham in heavy duty nonstick foil and place it in the roasting pan. Bake for 30 minutes covered. While the ham bakes, make the glaze.
• Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan on the stove. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a low and allow the mixture to simmer on low for about 15 minutes, or until glaze has reduced in volume and thickened some; set aside off the heat.
• After the ham has been baking 30 minutes, remove it from the oven, carefully peel back the foil, evenly sprinkle the 1/4 cup crushed pineapple and juice associated, reseal the foil, return it to the oven, and bake it covered for 10 minutes. When done, the internal temp should be at 140F. Tips - Don't overbake so your ham doesn't dry out. Also remember that the internal temp will continue to rise even out of the oven, so I feel safe pulling mine out at about 135F.
• After this second baking of 10 minutes, remove it from the oven and turn the broiler to 500F.
• Peel back the foil, and carefully drizzle the orange pineapple glaze all over the ham.
• Place it uncovered under the broiler for just 3 to 4 minutes. Tip - Don't leave the kitchen and keep a very watchful eye on it so it doesn't burn! You want the glaze to caramelize but it can burn easily, in just one minute, and will taste terrible so be extremely careful and vigilant!
• Allow ham to rest for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Extra ham will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days and in the freezer for up to 4 months.

BOURBON HONEY GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan, heat bourbon, honey, molasses, and marmalade over low heat for 15 minutes or until reduced by half, stirring occasionally. (When measuring honey and molasses, spray measuring cup with nonstick cooking spray to keep measurements accurate.) Set aside.
• With a sharp knife, cut a diamond pattern on the fatty part of the ham. Stud whole cloves in each diamond, at points where lines cross. Spread half of the bourbon glaze over the ham and roast for 30 minutes, uncovered. Baste occasionally with remaining glaze and continue to roast for another 15 minutes. Let ham stand for 20 minutes before slicing.
