Awesome Baked Ham

Recipe #46922 | 4½ hours | 20 min prep | add private note

I love this recipe because it is so easy, and calls for hardly any ingredients and always have these in my pantry. This recipe came from a good friend's mother, who was always asked to bake the ham for get-togethers and family dinners. Now I get those requests. People who ordinarily aren't too fond of ham, rave over this one. After I carve, I spoon a little of the glaze over the meat in the platter-yummmm!

Boy, how I hate to give this another 5 stars, haha! I am pretty new at cooking and this was my very first ham. I was a little scared because it wasn't my mothers traditional pineapple juice marinade, but I tried it anyway. I swear, they should make a candle that smells like this ham slow baking in the oven! It is wonderful. I made a 7 lb. ham for our family just to piece on throughout the week...and I am on my second plate right now. I may have overcooked mine a little, but that was just a first-timers mistake! LOVE IT!!!!! Oh, the only change I made... I basted every 15 minutes and 10 before taking it out of the oven I used about 1/4 cup brown sugar and crumbled it over the top. I put it back in the oven uncovered to get that burnt sugar taste... AMAZING!

    Best baked ham recipe ever! We have a cookout every year,and the highlight of the meal is the seep fried turkey. This year we decided to supliment the turkey with this ham recipe. WOW!! There was plently of turkey left, but no ham. Six people asked for the recipe and said it was the best ham they had ever had. It was a big hit and now we will have to make this every year...

    As the recipe says "One of the best tasting hams you will ever have". I used a semi-boneless 1/2 ham that weighed 9 lbs and made the paste with 1/2 lb brown sugar and 1/4 cup of yellow mustard. It made a nice thick paste to coat it with. I wrapped it in the foil using two sheets (one going in each way) in a foil roasting pan (no worry about clean-up). I then placed the roasting pan on a flat pizza pan and cooked it at 350 degrees for 3 hours and let it sit for 1 hour. It was so moist and tender, it just melted in your mouth. I poured off the gravy and poured it into a gravy boat on the side after spooning a small amount over the meat on the platter. I will probably never make ham any other way again. We all just kept going back for "just one more piece". Thanks Boopster for making my Christmas dinner a booming success.

    This was rave-a-licious!! I made a half ham and used a Reynold's baking bag (because I had one!) and it was fabulous. DH loved the gravy. So simple & delicious - thanks for posting!
