Ingredients

The following ingredients have 7 Servings
  • 4 pound whole bone-in cured ham (size may vary, adjust cook time accordingly)
  • 1/2 cup fresh pineapple (peel and core removed, cut into chunks)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup spicy brown mustard

Instruction

  • Score the outer fat layer of the ham in a diamond pattern. Only let your knife go as deep as the fat and make the lines of the diamonds run about an inch apart. This will allow the fat to more easily render and it will also allow the pineapple glaze to better sink into the meat.
  • Insert a meat thermometer into your ham and wrap the entire ham in foil. Cook the ham in the oven or on grill at 275 degrees F until the thermometer reads 130 degrees F.
  • Combine the pineapple, brown sugar, and mustard in the blender to make a glaze.
  • Once the ham its 130 degrees F, leave the ham on the foil but open it up. If there's excess liquid, drain off as much as you can. Pour the pineapple glaze all over the ham, trying to keep as much on the ham as you can. Leave the foil open but this time make more of a bowl with it. Continue cooking until internal temperature reaches 150 degrees F.
  • Remove from oven or grill and allow to rest at least 15 minutes before slicing. Ham should fall off the bone. When done, reserve bone to make some leftover ham soup.
