Copycat Boars Head Ham Glaze Recipes

BROWN SUGAR GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Take ham out of the fridge 1 hour prior.
• Preheat oven to 160C / 320F (standard) or 140C / 285F (fan). Arrange shelf in lower third so the ham will be sitting in the centre of the oven (not right at the top of the oven, this causes more uneven cooking on surface).

CROCK POT HAM WITH MAPLE & BROWN SUGAR GLAZE

Steps:

• Remove ham from package and place in slow cooker - cut side down.
• Mix together maple syrup, brown sugar and mustard in a bowl.
• Pour over entire ham.
• Cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours.
• Optional: Score the surface of your ham with shallow diamond-shape cuts. It adds a decorative edge and also ensures the outer coating of fat crisps to a rich golden brown when baked.

BROWN SUGAR GLAZE FOR HAM

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and simmer on low about 15 minutes or until thickened.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool 10-15 minutes to thicken.
• Brush over cooked ham during the last 20-30 minutes or until golden.

AMAZING GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Let the ham sit at room temperature for 1 hour before baking. This will allow it to cook evenly.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Make the glaze: In a medium pot over medium-high heat, combine the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, cinnamon, paprika, chili powder, orange zest and juice, garlic and some salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Place a rack in a roasting pan. Put the ham on the rack large open-face down (so the spiral cuts are stacked on top of one another). Brush half of the glaze over the surface of the ham, getting it between the slices as much as you can.
• Pour about an inch of water in the base of the roasting pan; the water should not touch the ham. Tent the pan loosely with aluminum foil and bake for about 10 minutes per pound (1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes).
• Take the ham out of the oven and remove the foil. Raise the oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Brush half of the remaining glaze on the ham. When the oven is up to temperature, return the ham, uncovered, and bake for 15 minutes. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham and cook for another 15 minutes.
• Carefully transfer the ham to a platter. Serve right away, or cover with foil and take it to your gathering!
