Recipe: Baked Glazed Ham
Description: I did not add the glaze, and it was just amazing!
Ingredients: [{"text": "2 tablespoon(s) sugar"}, {"text": "1 tablespoon(s) paprika"}, {"text": "1 tablespoon(s) chili powder"}, {"text": "1 teaspoon(s) ground cumin"}, {"text": "3/4 teaspoon(s) cinnamon"}, {"text": "1/2 teaspoon(s) ground cloves"}, {"text": "8 pound(s) smoked cooked half ham, trimmed"}, {"text": "12 ounce(s) cola soft drink (i used diet coke)"}, {"text": "GLAZE: (I OMITTED, IT WAS FANTASTIC WITHOUT IT)"}, {"text": "1/3 cup(s) orange juice"}, {"text": "8 ounce(s) plum or apricot preserves"}]
Instructions: Combine all seasonings. Score fat in ham to diamond patterns. Sprinkle with seasonings and place in lightly greased shallow roasting pan. Pour pop into bottom. Bake, covered at 325 degrees for 1 hour, uncover and bake 15 min more.
Glaze: stir together preserves and orange juice, spoon 3/4 c over ham. Bake 15 min more, until meat thermometer at thickest part reads 140 degrees. Let stand 15 min before slicing and serve with remaining glaze.
As I omitted the glaze, I merely cooked the ham to the 140 degrees.
