Grilled Ham With Orange Mustard Glaze Food

GRILLED GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium indirect heat. For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes turn off one of the middle burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
• Cut three 12-inch pieces of heavy-duty foil. Working one piece at a time, fold in half lengthwise. Fold in half again and fold in half one more time; you should have a long strip of foil about 1 1/2 inches wide. Twist the two ends of the strip in opposite directions making a twisted rope of foil. Repeat with the remaining two pieces of foil. Set all three ropes in the center of a small disposable aluminum roaster about 1 inch apart and place the ham on top. (The ropes will prevent the bottom of the ham from burning.) Cover tightly with foil and place over indirect heat (if your grill has a thermometer, it should be at around 325 degrees F). Cover the grill and cook until just warmed through, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, boil the pineapple juice, brown sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until the glaze is very thick and has the consistency of honey, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and remove from the heat.
• Carefully remove the foil cover from the ham and discard; baste with the glaze, making sure to get in between each slice. Increase the heat to medium-high and move the ham over direct heat. Cover the grill and cook until the glaze begins to bubble, about 5 minutes. Baste again with the remaining glaze, then cover and cook until the glaze bubbles, 5 minutes more. Continue basting and cooking until the ham is shiny and the glaze begins to brown, about 10 more minutes. Remove from the grill and let sit 10 minutes, uncovered, before serving.
• Meanwhile, grill the pineapple rings over direct heat until charred on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Let cool. Arrange the pineapple rings on the uncut portion of the ham, grill marks facing up, and use toothpicks to secure them in place. Place a cherry in the center of each ring and secure with a toothpick.
• Serve the ham with any accumulated juices, remaining pineapple rings and cherries on the side.

ORANGE DIJON GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275 F. Let ham rest to room temperature. Mix marmalade, dijon mustard and orange juice in a small bowl.
• Place ham face-down in a foil-lined roasting pan. Brush on some of the glaze.
• Add 1 cup water to the pan. Cover the baking pan securely with foil or cover with roasting pan lid.
• Bake according to package directions (I cooked mine for 12 minutes per pound) until the ham is warm, or until the internal temperature of the ham is about 120-130 F, brushing on more glaze halfway through the baking time.
• Cover with aluminum foil and let rest for 15 minutes before serving. Serve ham with remaining glaze to drizzle over slices.

ORANGE GLAZED HAM WITH MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt 1/2 cup butter in a medium sized glass bowl. Add 1/2 c brown sugar , 1/4 c honey, 1/2 c orange juice, 1/4 tsp cloves, and 1/4 tsp cinnamon.
• Whisk it together to combine and heat it in the microwave for 1 minute.
• Line a large baking pan with tin foil and spray it with cooking spray. Unwrap your ham and place it in the center of the pan. Brush some of the orange glaze over the ham. Put in 325 oven to bake.
• Take the ham out of the oven every 15 minutes and brush or pour more glaze over the top. Hal way through baking you might turn over the ham and place it face down in the pan so it won't dry out and coat all sides of ham with the glaze. Bake for 1 1/2 hours.
• For Mustard Sauce: Place 3 eggs into a medium sized sauce pan. Whisk them together until frothy.
• Combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 tbsp flour, 1/4 c dry mustard in a small bowl.
• Pour it into the sauce pan with the egg yolks.
• Pour in 1/2 c water and 1/2 c white vinegar.
• Whisk the mixture together and heat it over medium heat, stirring constantly. Bring it to a boil and keep stirring while it thickens. The texture will be like mustard you would squeeze out of a bottle.
• Add 4 tablespoons butter to the warm sauce and stir it well to combine. Serve the sauce warm with the ham.
• The sauce will start to thicken as it cools. Reheat it in the microwave if you need before you serve it. Leftovers can be stored for up to 3 weeks.
