More Holiday Main Dishes
Ham: you’ll need an 8 pound pre-cooked bone-in spiral sliced ham for this recipe. I like to go with a bone-in ham because they have a better flavor and texture than boneless ham. Plus, you can save the bone to use in soups and stews. The spiral slicing makes serving a breeze and it also makes it even easier for you to get the glaze into every crevice.
Butter: I like to use unsalted butter for this recipe.
Honey and Maple Syrup: to give the ham that delicious maple honey flavor we’re using a combination of both honey and pure maple syrup. Make sure you’re using maple syrup and not pancake syrup.
Pineapple Juice: the combination of ham and pineapple is a match made in heaven. You’ll need half a cup for the glaze. If you don’t have pineapple juice you could always swap it for orange juice instead.
Brown Sugar: go with dark brown sugar for a deeper richer flavor.
Dijon Mustard: a bit of dijon mustard adds a bit of tang to the ham.
Spices: we’re using a combination of paprika, garlic powder, allspice, and cinnamon.
