Pineapple-Glazed Ham
![](admin/recipeuploads/1712573055.jpg)
Description :
This is even better than the traditional pineapple-glazed ham your mom makes.
Ingredient :
- 1 navel orange, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
- 1 medium red onion, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
- 1 pineapple, rind removed, half cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, remaining roughly chopped
- 1/2 fully-cooked bone-in ham (about 7 lbs total, preferably shank end)
- 1 12-ounce bottle ginger beer, divided
- 1/2 c. light brown sugar
- 2 tsp. low-sodium soy sauce
Direction :
- Heat oven to 375°F. In a roasting pan, arrange slices of orange, onion and pineapple, then place rack on top.
- Place ham cut side down on top of rack. Score ham on all sides in diamond pattern, cutting only ¼ to ½ inch deep. Pour ¼ cup ginger beer over ham, cover with foil and bake 1½ hr.
- Meanwhile, in blender, puree remaining chopped pineapple and ginger beer until smooth. Transfer to saucepan, stir in brown sugar and soy sauce and simmer, stirring occasionally, until syrupy and reduced to 1 cup, 35 to 40 min.
- Brush a third of the glaze (about 1/3 cup) over ham and bake, uncovered, 15 min. Rotate ham in oven and repeat with another 1/3 glaze and bake another 15 min. Brush remaining glaze over ham and bake until ham is heated through and internal temperature registers 140°F, 15 to 20 min. more.
