I got this recipe from the cooking section of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel years ago. It is the ONLY way I will make ham. Everyone who tries it raves about it, although it does look like a volcano erupted! :):) A little expensive in the ingredients, but worth making once a year! NOTE: The 1-1/2 hours prep time includes the 1-1/4 hours of boiling ham on stove.. Ingredients:
1 (9 lb) cooked ham |
1 (2 liter) bottle ginger ale |
1/2 lb gingersnaps, crushed into small particles (blender or rolling pin) |
1/3 cup molasses or 1/3 cup honey |
5 ounces heinz 57 steak sauce (1/2 bottle) |
1/4-1/2 cup maraschino cherry juice |
Directions:
1. Place ham in tall kettle and cover with ginger ale. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer for 1-1/4 hours. Remove ham from liquid and cool.
2. Preheat oven to 300°F.
3. Combine remaining ingredients in a bowl to make a paste.
4. Brush some of the mix over the ham and bake uncovered for 45 minutes.
5. Continue baking 2 to 2 1/2 hours longer, until ham is heated through, brushing with mix as needed. Serve warm.
