How to cook deliciously - Brown Sugar Pineapple Ham
1. Stage
Adjust a rack to lower third of the oven and preheat to 325°. Wrap ham in aluminum foil, fat-cap-side up. Set ham on a rack in a large roasting pan and fill bottom of pan with about ¼” water (about 4 cups, depending on the size of the pan). Bake ham until the internal temperature reaches 120°, about 1 hour 20 minutes.
2. Stage
Meanwhile, make the glaze: in a small saucepan, bring pineapple juice, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, hot sauce, and allspice to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer, swirling occasionally, until thick enough to coat a spoon, about 15 minutes. Remove from direct heat, and set aside atop the stove to keep warm.
3. Stage
Carefully remove the roasting pan with the ham from the oven. Increase the oven temperature to 425°. Brush the ham all over with the glaze. Arrange the sliced pineapple all over the ham, securing each slice with a few toothpicks. Add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick. Brush top of ham, pineapple, and cherries with more glaze.
4. Stage
Return ham to oven uncovered to keep baking, basting with more glaze every 15 minutes, until heated through, about 45 minutes more. Remove from the oven, and brush with remaining glaze. Serve warm.
