SWEET PINEAPPLE GLAZE FOR HAM

Steps:

• Pour 1/2 cup pineapple juice from one of the cans into a bowl; reserve.
• Pour pineapple tidbits and remaining juice into a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add brown sugar and cloves. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens, about 1 hour. Thin sauce to desired consistency with reserved juice.

PINEAPPLE HONEY-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Let the ham sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Trim off any skin from the ham. Use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Push the cloves into the ham, if using, placing them at the intersections of the cuts. Put the ham, flat-side down, on a rack in a roasting pan.
• Drain the pineapples, reserving the juice. Arrange the sliced pineapple all over the ham, securing with toothpicks. Add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick.
• Pour 1/4 inch water in the bottom of the pan and tent the ham with foil.
• Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham (avoiding bone) registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (or about 15 minutes per pound).
• Meanwhile, combine the honey, brown sugar and reserved pineapple juice in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, syrupy and reduced to about 3 cups, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Uncover the pan and carefully brush a third of the glaze all over the ham. If the water in the roasting pan has evaporated, add more. Bake the ham for 15 minutes more. Brush with another third of the glaze and bake for 15 minutes more. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham and cook until the glaze is shiny and the skin is dark golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes more. Let rest for 15 minutes.

• Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour. Pour remaining ginger ale over the ham, cover again with foil, and bake another 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake until instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 30 minutes more.

GLAZED HAM WITH DIJON-PINEAPPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Mix sugar, syrup and mustard until blended. Use paring knife to make shallow even diagonal cuts across top of ham in one direction. Repeat, making slits in opposite direction to form diamond shapes.
• Insert cloves where cuts meet. Place ham on rack in shallow pan. Place cherries, cut-sides down, on surface of ham.
• Bake 2 hours or until ham is heated through, brushing occasionally with 1/2 cup syrup mixture after 1-1/2 hours. About 10 min. before ham is done, mix remaining syrup mixture with cornstarch and pineapple in saucepan; bring to boil on medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Cook and stir on medium-low heat 5 min. or until thickened.

HAM WITH SWEET PINEAPPLE SAUCE

SIMPLE AND SWEET HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together.
• To use the glaze, remove your ham from the oven when there's 30 minutes left. Pour off any drippings that have accumulated in your pan. Take a sharp knife and score the ham in a criss-cross pattern. If it's a spiral ham, making a set of vertical cuts should be fine. Use about a third of the glaze to coat the ham, and return to 400°F oven for 8-10 minutes.
• Repeat applications of the glaze 1-2 more times, returning the ham to cook for about 8 to 10 minutes after each application of the glaze. Be sure not to use glaze in the bottom of the pan - this will dull the sheen.

SWEET STICKY HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Set aside Pineapple Slices.
• Mix pineapple juice, brown sugar, butter, and molasses, in saucepan and heat until bubbly stirring continuously. Continue cooking for 10 minutes (the mixture will thicken only slightly). Then add the crushed cookies.
• Continue simmering and stirring while the mixture reduces by about 1/3. This will take about 15 minutes more.
• If you still desire a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch and water to make a slurry.
• Continue stirring the boiling sugar/juice mixture while adding slurry. You may not need to add all of the slurry, depending upon how thick you like the glaze.
• Cook for five minutes longer. The glaze should be quite thick and will easily coat the back of a spoon.
• 30 minutes before ham is finished cooking, use toothpicks to attach slices of pineapple all over outside of ham.
• Cook ham for an additional 30 minutes.
• Pour half of glaze over ham and pineapple slices.
• Reserve additional glaze for individual servings.
