Ingredients:

Serving

24 oz root beer , 2 (12-oz) cans
2 tbsp pepper jelly
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp emeril's steak sauce
1 tsp pepper sauce (recommended : caribbean pick-a-pepper)
4 whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick
1 orange , zest and juice
1 lemon , zest and juice
1/2 vanilla bean, split and scraped
1 tsp bitters (recommended : angostura)
2 large ham steaks, 1/2-inch thick
sweet potato puree , recipe follows
3 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tbsp butter, softened at room temperature
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 1/4 tsp ground ginger
3/4 tsp lemon zest
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 pinch ground white pepper

Directions:

Place all of the above ingredients in a 2-quart saucepan except the ham steaks, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and continue to cook until the root beer is reduced by 2/3 and takes on a syrupy consistency, about 20 minutes. Remove the glaze from the heat and strain into a clean, heatproof container.
Heat a large, 12-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat until hot. Saute the ham steaks 1 at a time for 3 minutes on each side. To serve, place each ham steak on a large plate with the sweet potato puree on the side and drizzle everything with the root beer glaze.
Sweet Potato Puree:
Place potatoes in a medium saucepan and add enough cold water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat so that the potatoes remain at a low boil and cook until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Drain in a colander placed in the sink.
Transfer the potatoes to the bowl of a food processor along with all remaining ingredients and process until fairly smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the potato puree to the saucepan and warm gently over low heat, stirring frequently, before serving.
