The Perfect Game Day or Holiday Crowd Pleaser!
Equipment
- 1 Shallow Roasting Pan
- 1 Small Sauce Pan
- 1 Length Aluminum Foil
Ingredients
- 10 LBS Fully Cooked Ham
- 2 1/4 Cups Peach Preserves
- 1/3 Cup Maple Syrup
- 1/3 Cup Orange Juice
- 2 tbsp Ground ancho-chile pepper
Instructions
- Start your oven by preheating to 325 degrees F. In the shallow roasting pan, place your hame on a rack. Cover the ham with aluminum foil and and bake for 2 and 1/4 to 2 and 1/2 hours or until your thermometer reads 135 F.
- While the ham cooks, in your small saucepan start to combine the syrup, orange juice, peach preserves and the chili pepper until well incorporated. Set aside 3/4 cup of this mixture for glazing the ham.
- When the ham is at 135 F, remove it from the oven and start to brush the hame with the 3/4 reserved glaze. Once the ham is well covered, return the ham to the oven and allow to cook for an additional 20 min or until the glaze has set and the internal temperature has risen to 145 F. Glaze one fore time with the reserved glaze.
- The Glaze that was not reserved, return to medium heat and allow that mixture to come to a boil, stir occasionally. Allow to cook until the sauce has started to slightly thicken. This will take about 2 to 3 min. Place in a serving dish and serve with the ham.
Notes
You can make your own smoked ham. However, for additional convenience you can get yourself a honey baked ham or spiral sliced ham and serve this with the bread of your choice and it makes wonderful sandwiches.
