Citrus Glazed Ham Recipe

Our Easter dinner would not be complete without a big ham.

The ham usually leaves us with a ton of leftovers, which I love using in lots of other leftovers in the upcoming weeks.

So, while ham is really inexpensive and on sale this time of year, grab one and bake it up!

Eat what you can for dinner, then portion out 1 pound portions, place in resealable gallon-sized plastic freezer bags, and save for another day.

Glaze ingredients needed to make Citrus Glazed Ham:

1. bone-in pre-cooked spiral-cut ham
2. orange marmalade
3. ground mustard
4. garlic powder
5. ground black pepper
6. ground cloves 

How to make Citrus Glazed Ham:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Place the entire ham inside a roasting pan .
• In a small bowl, mix together marmalade and spices until completely blended. Brush 1/2 of the marmalade mixture over ham, gently separating the slices so mixture can reach middle of ham. Cover loosely with foil (I had to use two large pieces of foil to cover my ham).
• Bake 1 hour, basting basting every 15-20 minutes with leftover marmalade. After 1 hour, remove foil and brush with remaining marmalade mixture. Bake 45 minutes longer (no basting required for the last 45 minutes). Serve ham with pan drippings.

• Slow Cooker Ham and Pineapple Sandwiches

Now, let’s talk about that leftover ham, shall we? It can be transformed into any number of tasty dishes. Your creativity is the only limit. When dealing with any kind of ham—pre-cooked, fully-cooked ham, bone-in, spiral cut, or your ham of choice from the grocery store across the street—there’s a world of possibilities. It all depends on the size of your ham.

For a succulent finish, ensuring your ham retains its moisture is key. After scoring a diamond pattern of 1-inch intervals, brush the marmalade mixture over the ham then wrap it snugly in aluminum foil and allow it to it rest in a baking dish or on a roasting rack. Basting the ham with the orange glaze, at the right oven temperature, will result in a mouthwatering, caramelized finish. It’s crucial that you allow the glaze to boil at low temperature until it achieves a syrupy consistency. This will allow for easy basting. Store the rest of the glaze in the fridge for up to 4 days. It’s normal for the glaze to thicken slightly when chilled. Give it a stir and warm it in the microwave to bring it to room temperature  For lovers of bone-in ham, laying it flat side down in a large roasting pan, and slicing it in spiral cut fashion before placing it in a preheated oven will ensure it cooks evenly as you continue basting it with the remaining glaze.
