Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1½ pounds ham steak (pre-cooked, 1/2-inch thick)
  • 1½ cups apricot preserves
  • ½ cup barbecue sauce (tomato-based)
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ¼ginger
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

Instruction

  • Preheat the grill to medium or 400 degrees F.
  • While the grill preheats, make the glaze by combining the preserves, barbecue sauce, ginger, and garlic powder in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for two to three minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the lime juice. Stir to combine. Place half the glaze in a small bowl to serve with the ham after grilling and set aside.
  • When the grill is hot, you will want to oil the grates before adding the ham to keep it from sticking. Before oiling, be sure to clean the grate with a grill brush.
  • Fold up a paper towel and dip it into a small amount of peanut oil or other vegetable oil. Use tongs and rub the grate with the paper towel to lightly coat with oil.
  • Add the ham steak to the grill and use a barbecue basting brush to generously coat the top side of the steak with the glaze—grill over direct heat for six to eight minutes. Next, turn the steak over and brush the glaze on the second side. Grill for another six to eight minutes. Add additional glaze if desired and remove it from the grill.
  • Serve immediately with the reserved glaze.
