Glaze for spiral ham


tommy

Recommended Posts

alright, so my MIL got this spiral ham for x-mas. since we're hosting a lot of people, we're doing buffet style, and i'm not all that concerned about knocking people's socks off. so the spiral ham was allowed onto the menu. :rolleyes:

anyway, we're serving it room temp or a bit above i suppose. the ham came with a packaged glaze, but i'm thinking there must be a better idea.

any thoughts on an interesting glaze? i've never really taken this approach, so i'm at a bit of a loss.

NOTES : This is a nice change from cola basted ham. The cherry cola gives the ham a nice reddish glaze.

This delicious glaze is sure to impress the MIL :wink: . It is kind of tough to make, but I think you can handle it :wacko::laugh:

A fun glaze to do is a Coca Cola glaze. It works really well, tastes very good and it's always fun to tell your incredulous guests that you glazed the ham with Coca Cola. Here is a recipe for a whisky and cola glaze or, for something simpler, there's this recipe for a cola glazed ham.

I actually like the juice in the bottom of the pan. I have never done this myself, but have had it many times at parties and it really is pretty good, although I prefer maple sugar glaze .
