The Holiday Ham Glaze Worth Volunteering For

This Balsamic and Dijon-Glazed Ham recipe starts with a Jones Hickory Smoked Bone-In or Semi-Boneless Ham scored in a diamond pattern and seasoned with salt and pepper. A three-ingredient glaze of dark brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard is brushed on in two coats during roasting, building a deeply caramelized, sweet and tangy crust. This gluten free glazed ham recipe serves 24 and makes a centerpiece-worthy holiday ham that’s as impressive as it is simple to make.

Ingredients

1 Jones Dairy Farm Semi-Boneless or Old Fashioned Fully Cooked Ham
salt and pepper to taste
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
3 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Directions

Remove ham from refrigerator 1 hour before cooking. Unwrap ham and generously pat salt and pepper all over ham.
Place ham on large cutting board, fat side up and score ham with 1/2-inch deep cuts, in a diamond pattern.
To make the glaze, combine brown sugar, balsamic vinegar and Dijon mustard in small bowl. Preheat oven to 325°F.
Place ham (fat side up) on roasting rack in roasting pan. Cook uncovered ham in oven 12-15 minutes per pound or until the internal temperature reaches 125°F on meat thermometer.
Halfway through the baking period, remove ham from oven and brush with half the glaze. Cook for another 45 minutes and brush with remaining glaze. When ham is done, let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Can’t stop, won’t stop

This year, family was on vacay so I was left in charge of the ham. I knew Jones would come through with the right recipe and boy did you ever. I doubled the glaze on this as we had a big ham and I glazed twice during baking instead of once. I could NOT stop eating this. I probably didn’t eat this much ham in the last five ham holidays combined. Immediately saving this for next year and offering to take over again for future iterations.
