Mustard Glazed Ham

Mustard Glazed Ham is a bone-in, spiral cut ham baked with glaze made from honey, brown sugar, ham drippings and stone ground mustard.

After that Air Fryer Salmon with Brown Sugar Glaze from last week, I decided that a similar recipe for ham needed to be done with the upcoming Easter holiday around the corner. I wanted the glaze to have great mustard flavor with a touch of sweetness that roasted up beautifully. This Mustard Glazed Ham really works and makes a gorgeous main course on your holiday table. We pair this ham with Cream Cheese Mashed Potatoes, gravy and Roasted Asparagus. Simple, traditional, gorgeous food- that’s what it’s all about.

Mustard Glazed Ham

I really focused on pulling that mustard flavor out with this Mustard Glazed Ham. Expect that little mustard kick with each glazed bite! It is really delicious. My ten-year-old asked if I could just give him “end” pieces because it was tasty. He just wanted to eat the glaze and I can’t even blame him.

How To Keep Your Ham Moist

Ham is one of those foods that can very easily be dried out when cooking. This can be because it is over-cooked or not properly prepped before cooking. I kept this recipe really simple today and if followed correctly, you will get a very moist ham. Here are the main three things to pay attention to while cooking this ham:

WATER

Instead of having the ham baste in its juice, we are cooking it in a roasting pan. This means we will need to count on steam to keep moisture inside the ham. Steam comes from water so put 1/2 cup of water in the bottom of your roasting pan and you can go ahead and add any extra ham juices leftover from the packaging.

FOIL

You can’t steam well in an open area. Right? Think of a hot shower in a small bathroom. When the door is closed, their is crazy steam. When the door is open, there is virtually no steam. We all know this. Same applies in the oven. Create a small area to steam the ham like a closed door while showering. That aluminum foil over the top of the ham needs to be fitted tightly with the roasting pan.

COOK TIME

Be mindful not to over-cook the ham. Most hams are already cooked meaning we just need to re-heat. Pick a bone-in, pre-cooked, spiral-cut ham in the 8-10 pound range. Now, bake 10 minutes for every pound. An 8 pound ham would cook for 80 minutes and a 10 pound ham would cook for 100 minutes. Once the ham is cooked, you crank the heat, remove the foil and pour the glaze on to roast.

Note that you can cook a larger ham if needed. Adjust your cook time accordingly using the 10 minutes per pound calculation.

Ingredients

8-10 Pound Spiral Cut Ham Bone-In, pre-cooked
1/2 Cup Honey
1/2 Cup Stone Ground Mustard
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup Ham Drippings
1/2 Cup Water

Instructions

Heat oven to 325 degrees.
Place the ham onto the rack in a roasting pan.
Add 1/2 cup of water to the bottom of the pan. I also like to add in extra ham juices from the bag the ham came in.
Wrap the the top in aluminum foil. Make sure you have a tight wrap where the ham can steam inside.
Bake for 10 minutes per pound. My ham was 8 pounds so I cooked it 80 minutes.
When there is 20 minutes left for your ham to cook, begin the glaze.
Using a basting syringe, pull 1/2 cup worth of ham drippings and put the liquid in a non-stick pan on the stove-top. Make sure to cover the ham back up well.
Along with the ham drippings, add honey, stone ground mustard and brown sugar. Bring the glaze to a low simmer and let simmer for 5 minutes. Set to the side.
After the ham has cooked, take it out of the oven and raise the oven temperature to 425 degrees.
Remove the foil and pour half the glaze over top of the ham.
Return to the oven for 10 minutes. Leave the foil off.
Pour the rest of the glaze over top and cook another 5 minutes.
Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

You may substitute butter for pan drippings to create your glaze.

Slow Cooker Orange Marmalade Glazed Ham

Orange Marmalade Glazed Ham is a favorite classic of mine. Cooking the ham in the crock-pot makes this tasty entrée simple to make and so flavorful!

What about the leftovers? Okay, I will admit, leftovers might be the best part of making this gorgeous Slow Cooker Orange Marmalade Glazed Ham with Hatfield’s boneless hams. Cold ham sandwich with gouda cheese, a grilled cheese with cheddar and warmed up ham, diced in a morning omelet or an easy snack paired with crackers.

Let’s get slow cooking!

Open your Hatfield’s Classic Boneless Ham using the easy open tab at the top and place into your slow cooker. For this particular recipe, remove the netting before cooking.

Hop over to your food processor. Add the orange marmalade, brown sugar, garlic cloves, honey and zest from an orange. Squeeze the juice from that orange and blend everything together. Pour over the ham and cover the top with aluminum foil. Put the crock-pot lid on and cook on low 4 hours. Half way through cooking, baste the ham once and cover again. I don’t recommend cooking past 4 hours since the Hatfield’s Classic Boneless Ham is pre-cooked so you just want to warm up the product.

Once the ham has finished heating up in the crock-pot, pre-heat the oven to broil and place the ham onto a pan. I just use a baking sheet lined with foil. With the juices left at the bottom of the crock-pot, place on the stove-top with a bit of flour. Whisk until the sauce begins to simmer and thicken. Pour over the ham and broil for 5-10 minutes to get that stunning glaze.

Slow Cooker Orange Marmalade Glazed Ham is now ready to serve and the smell is amazing! If you need to take the dish to-go, simply put it back into the crock-pot to keep warm and head out. Serve as soon as possible and keep in mind the longer you have the ham on the warm setting, the more you risk it drying out.

Slow Cooker Orange Marmalade Glazed Ham

Slow Cooker Orange Marmalade Glazed Ham made in the crock-pot with brown sugar, honey, orange zest, freshly squeezed orange, garlic and orange marmalade cooked with Hatfield’s Classic Boneless Ham.

3 pound Hatfield’s boneless ham
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup orange marmalade
2-4 garlic cloves (use 4 for a stronger garlic taste, just how I like it)
1/4 cup juice from orange
1 orange, zest
1 orange, sliced (garnish of platter)
2 tablespoons flour

Remove netting from ham and place into crock-pot.
In the food processor, add brown sugar, honey, orange marmalade, and 2-4 cloves garlic (4 for my garlic lovers). Zest and juice 1 orange. Blend ingredients.
Pour the sauce over ham.
Cover the top with foil and secure lid.
Cook on low 3.5-4 hours. Baste the ham half-way through placing the sauce back on top.
Pre-heat oven to a broil.
Remove ham from crock-pot and place onto a pan to place in oven.
Place the sauce from the bottom of crock-pot into a saucepan on the stovetop on a medium to high heat. Add the flour and whisk until simmering and thickening.
Drizzle over the ham and broil 5-10 minutes.
Slice an orange to decorate the bottom of the serving platter for an extra special touch and pop of color.

Ham, Cucumber and Sprout Sandwich with Spicy Mayo

Ham, Cucumber and Sprout Sandwich with Spicy Mayo is what’s on the menu. A monster sized sandwich with hearty bread, thin sliced deli meat, crispy cucumber, fresh sprouts, and a touch of spice stacked high.

Spring is here and I am craving fresh ingredients and cold sandwiches. Now, if someone could tell Cincinnati that spring has arrived, that would be fantastic. Last week the temperature got up to a whopping 76 degrees and the next day it snowed. I wish I was kidding. This weather is such a teaser but that is alright. Cincinnati may not be ready for spring but I sure am!

What is the secret to building a perfect sandwich for the spring season ahead? Quality ingredients and simplicity.

During this time of year, sandwiches are basically an everyday lunch item in my household. The Ham, Cucumber and Sprout Sandwich with Spicy Mayo has only 6 ingredients but is not short on flavor. My Walmart grocery list always has Pepperidge Farm® bread, Hillshire Farm® Thin Sliced Honey Ham, Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise, fresh fruits and vegetables as part of my pantry and fridge basics. I added a spicy sriracha today for that extra special touch.

Pepperidge Farm is a staple in my household and the star of any sandwich. In my opinion, it is all about the freshness of bread due to the double sealed packaging and the hearty wholesome ingredients that make it so delicious. I also really enjoy Pepperidge Farm for my morning toast with a cup of coffee on the side.

Not all lunch meats are created equal. Hillshire Farm® has no artificial flavors or bi-products and is slow roasted for hours making it taste so much better than other lunch meats. Hillshire Farm® Thin Sliced Honey Ham has a touch of sweetness and double packaged to ensure freshness.

Does anyone else wash and reuse those plastic containers or is it just me?

To be honest, I am not a big mayonnaise person. My family loves it but I am picky in this department. How I eat my mayonnaise: Using Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise and intensifying the flavor. Today, I intensified the flavor with sriracha which really takes this sandwich to the next level of deliciousness. I also love the fact that Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise is made with real, simple ingredients including eggs, oil and vinegar. Sometimes, simple is better!

Have you ever tried Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise on the outside of your bread for a crispy grilled sandwich? Hello yumminess! Give it a whirl, you will not be sorry.

What do you need to put on your next Walmart shopping list to make this hearty, fresh sandwich?

20 ounce squeezable Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise
9 ounce package Hillshire Farm® Thin Sliced Honey Ham
loaf of Pepperidge Farm Whole Grain Oatmeal bread
sriracha
cucumber
fresh sprouts (I prefer the broccoli sprouts)

Tips & Tricks

Rinse the Ham

For the holidays, a glazed ham is normally used. These hams usually have a lot of honey and sugars so make to to rinse all the off before placing it in the crockpot.

Salt

Wait until the soup has completely finished cooking before adding any salt. The ham is already pretty salty and each ham can differ in the saltiness level so do a taste test before serving to determine how much, if any, salt needs to be added.

Rinse the celery and carrots. Peel carrots. Dice and place into crockpot.
Add a diced onion.

Slow Cooker Honey Pineapple Holiday Ham

Slow Cooker Honey Pineapple Holiday Ham is a must have recipe for holiday parties. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter or any get together is a perfect occasion for Slow Cooker Honey Pineapple Holiday Ham! Occasionally, I even throw this ham in on a Sunday afternoon so to make ham sandwiches for the week’s lunches or a Slow Cooker Ham and Bean Soup.

This recipe is inspired by my grandmother. My grandmother would always make ham with brown sugar, honey or mustard and pineapple slices. She would cook hers in the oven and I prefer the crockpot, especially if you have a turkey and casseroles going in the oven then there just isn’t much room for a ham. The crockpot also lets you cook the ham on a low temperature for a longer time to ensure the juices are soaking in.

Pick a pre cooked ham that is 8-10 pounds and I prefer to buy with bone in so I can make a soup with the leftovers. A ham over 10 pounds may be difficult to squeeze into your crockpot so keep that in mind. Make sure to buy a spiraled pre sliced ham also so the flavors of the honey, pineapple, and brown sugar can really soak in and give you a really tasty ham.

I always recommend buying locally made honey, especially if you suffer from seasonal allergies. Honey is known to help with pollen sensitivities when consumed on a regular basis. I think this is a controversial topic in regards to honey helping fight against seasonal allergies but I believe it and always buy local. Plus, you are helping support a small business in your community which is always a great idea.

Spicy Buffalo Honey Mustard Ham and Cheese Croissant

Spicy Buffalo Honey Mustard Ham and Cheese Croissant is a simple lunch sandwich that is perfect for on the go busy people like myself. Start with a nice buttery, flaky croissant and add a few slices of black forest ham from the deli counter, a slice of pepper jack cheese, and spread a generous amount of our spicy buffalo honey mustard. Wrap the sandwiches up in foil and set in fridge. On the way out the door, grab a wrapped sandwich and heat up for 45 seconds at lunchtime. The kids take them to school and eat cold. This spicy buffalo honey mustard is amazing! There is a hint of barbeque sauce in the honey mustard and has just a little kick of spicy. So good and this sauce can be used with all sorts of foods… chicken tenders, french fries, on a salad, in a wrap, you name it.

Before being a stay at home mom, I worked in a hospital. I know that many of you out there can relate to this schedule. 7:30am: start work. 10:00am: break if the stars are in proper alignment and a patient cancelled by chance. 12 noon: lunch. 12:20: actually able to sit down for lunch after catching up on morning work, 12:25: shove food in face because next patient is here but hey maybe it will be your lucky day and you can have a snack break before you leave at 4pm. Anybody relate? This is a perfect lunch time croissant, if you have THAT schedule or any other and ideal for kids lunch boxes. You can eat this sandwich cold or remove from foil and heat in the microwave for 45 seconds. Preparation is really easy and I make 8 on Sunday night and set into fridge for everyone to grab in the mornings through the week.
