This crowd-favorite spiral glazed ham shines as a holiday centerpiece or weekend dinner. This version boasts deliciously caramelized edges thanks to a one-pot glaze featuring Maple Bourbon Jalapeno Seasoning, Bourbon Honey, and pineapple juice. The results are tender, juicy, and dripping with sweet-spicy flavor.
Ingredients
- 7 to 8 lb boneless spiral ham (pre-cooked)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice
-
4 oz Maple Syrup – Granulated
-
1/4 cup Bourbon Honey
-
4 tsp Maple Bourbon Jalapeño Seasoning
Directions
- Remove any packaging or netting from the ham. Place ham in a baking dish; set aside at room temperature to rest for 1 to 2 hours. Preheat oven to 300°F. Add the water to the base of the baking dish. Cover the ham with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, to a small saucepan over medium heat add the butter, pineapple juice, maple granules, honey, and seasoning. Cook, while stirring occasionally, until the mixture is smooth and the maple granules have fully dissolved, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat.
- After 30 minutes of baking, remove the ham from the oven and increase temperature to 425°F.
- Remove the foil; pour roughly one-quarter of the glaze over the ham, brushing in between the cuts to coat evenly. Return to the oven and bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
- Repeat these steps - applying one-quarter of the glaze and baking in 10-minute intervals - three more times, until all the glaze is used and ham is heated through.
- Remove from the oven and let the ham rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving
