I got an Easter Ham that didn't come with its own glaze package. I need ideas for a glaze that doesn't contain any pineapple (Mrs. Herf won't eat it). I'm thinking of OJ and brown sugar but I'm open to suggestions.

I've made one with brown sugar and honey that was excellent. You can also add spices such as cinnnamon, allspice, bay, etc

Mustard Baked Ham

1-1/2 tsp whole cloves
1/2 cu dark brown sugar
3 Tbsp whole-grain mustard
1 tsp finely chopped fresh thyme
1/2 tsp finely chopped rosemary
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 cu orange juice

Trim all but 1/4" of fat from ham. Score ham in a diamond pattern. Stud with cloves at each scored intersection.

Place ham in a medium roasting pan. Combine remaining ingredients except OJ and pat seasoning mix evenly over ham.

Pour OJ in roast pan and place in low rack of 350 degree oven. Bake until internal temp reaches 140 degrees (~10-12 minutes/pound), basting with pan liquid every 20 minutes. Tent with aluminum foil if glaze begins to burn.

When done, remove from oven and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.

I did this a few years back and haven't turned back since:

1. Slice the ham for full flavor exposure
2. Stick it in a crock pot and generously coat it with brown sugar and a couple cups of cranberry juice. A little powdered mustard gives it a little kick too, but I never really notice it (Tiara does).
3. Let it cook for a few hours, then take it out before it gets tough.

Best ham I've ever eaten!

I'd go with this. I do something similar and it is always a crowd pleaser.

Best,

1) Drive to a drive-through

2) Order a Number 3 Easter Dinner-to-go...

It's kind of funny. I'd like to try a glazed ham someday, but if you even broach the idea with my wife, she honestly, genuinely comes completely unglued.
