Baked Ham Recipe

[168BTHPM]

Well I was recruited to cook Christmas dinner and had a big ham to cook. I have never done this before so I read some recipes online and came up with my own and it turned out great so I thought I would pass it along.

I baked the ham for 4 hours in a deep stoneware pan tightly covered with aluminum foil, I added a cup of water before covering. After 4 hours I drained the water which also got rid of a lot of the salt and fat. I mixed a glaze using 1 cup of Dr. Pepper and 1.5 cups of brown sugar, I started to glaze the ham and was going to cook it for 30 minutes uncovered like the recipes said but I thought the heck with that and poured the whole batch of glaze over the ham, covered it again and cooked it for another hour.

Man was it good, the meat was so tender it fell off of the bone and you could cut it with a fork. Everyone ate so much we are all suffering for it now, and my kids are picky eaters so it must be really good for them to eat too much of it.

Re: Baked Ham Recipe

That sounds great! I have lived in Germany for the past 6 years, minus some deployment time, and the Deutsch can cook some damn pork. Beef... not so much. You won't get a good steak here, but if you like pork on pork, this is this place. Bacon on pork chops with a pork fat gravy.... OMG!

BTW, my personal rule with pork (yours already sounds great, but maybe you'd like to try it) APPLE. Can't go wrong with apple. Green apple, Red apple, apple juice, apple sauce, apple jelly... marinate it, season it, top it... doesn't matter. Apple goes good with pork.

I may try apples next time, and maybe some pineapple.

There is a German restaurant just a few miles from my house, I had a pork dish there not long ago that was great. The chef told me they marinate the meat in beer for two days before they cook it. It was served with apple sauce and the two went together very well.

Yeah, I probably should've said beer marinate as well... Just been here for so long that it slipped the mind. Beer is like water here, except cheaper and tastes better.

Such a good ham recipe, and I am used to cook ham with electric roaster for the convenience (seems that I don`t need to worry a lot like turning turkey or ham over regularly except waiting ) Things I like to go with are the herbs, mints and cinnamon, sometimes the juice.

I use a similar glaze as you but add a good stone ground mustard and a little apple vinegar to it as well. I never add the glaze until the ham is cooked halfway through. Then I glaze it multiple times with a 15-20 minute interval between the glazing periods. The other thing you didn't explicitly state that you may want to try is whole cloves. They give the ham a truly marvelous flavor. Before cooking score the entire top surface in a diamond pattern. Don't go very deep, maybe about an eight of an inch. Use about an inch spacing between the scoring cuts. Stick a whole clove in the center of each diamond so the top is nicely covered.

I put mine fat side up in a roaster stab holes all in it ,pour a can of coke on top of it, cover it up, 250 degrees for about 12 hours. Comes out falling apart.

I’m confused..... did someone really bump a 7yr old thread to talk about ham?


The fuck did you even find it? The search bar?....... what sick fuck comes to the hide to search for ham recipes?


I was doubting those “red flag” laws before.....but this might be a prime case for it.

A good ham is awesome but this belongs in Maggies versus the Pit

This has been happening a lot the last few weeks. Fucking stupid. This thread had to be 200 pages in. Crazy ass bastards.

Didn't notice that

I too have wondered about these very old threads popping up. I understood why it was happening following the move back, as we were kind of picking up where we left off before the move. But now? Are people finding them through the search bar? And ham?

At least it wasn't ... pickle surprise!
