Ingredients
- 8-9 pound spiral cut ham
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup peach preserves
- ½ cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons grainy mustard
- 1 tablespoon thyme leaves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F and pour ¼-inch of water into a roasting pan, about 2 cups worth.
- Place the ham in the roasting pan and insert toothpicks into the front of it to keep the slices together.
- Tent the ham loosely with foil and bake for 1 hour.
- While the ham is cooking, whisk together the peach preserves, maple syrup, mustard, and thyme, divide the mixture in half, and reserve half of the glaze for service.
- After the first hour of cooking has passed, brush the ham every 5 to 10 minutes for an additional 30 minutes.
- Let the meat rest for 15 minutes, loosely covered, before serving. Remove toothpicks and serve.
Notes
- Spiral ham is precooked, so the internal temperature you are looking for when reheating is 135°F.
- Ham can also be grilled using indirect heat. Just be sure to wrap well before basting to allow natural juices to form and not evaporate.
- Leftover ham keeps great in Ziploc bags. Simply break down your ham, bag it up into the portions you want, and label your bags. Consume within 5 days or freeze.
- Using freezer bags to start makes it easier to transition into the freezer if needed. Freeze the ham for up to 2 months and make sure to squeeze out any excess air. Thaw in the refrigerator.
