Recipe Of The Week 10/20: Baked Honey- Mustard Ham
Oct 20, 2024
Yields 16 Servings
Ingredients:
6 to 8 pound spiral bone-in ham
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard, or to taste
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325F and position a rack in the lower third.
Place the ham cut side down in a baking dish that will fit it comfortably without touching the sides and cover tightly with foil.
Bake the ham until it is 135F in the thickest part, about 15 minutes per pound, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the mustard (if your Dijon is very potent, start with 2 tablespoons and add more to taste), the honey, and brown sugar.
When the ham is ready, raise the oven to 400F. Uncover it and brush the glaze all over the ham, taking care to not let too much drip off. Continue roasting until the glaze has browned and is bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes.
Let the ham rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
