Here's a classic and flavorful glaze recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions:
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Preheat your grill to medium heat.
- Place the ham on the grill and cook it for about 10 minutes per pound, or according to the instructions on the packaging, making sure to turn it occasionally for even cooking.
- About 30 minutes before the ham is done, start basting it with the glaze mixture every 10 minutes, using a brush or spoon to coat the surface.
- Continue cooking the ham, basting it with the glaze, until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the ham from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
The glaze adds a sweet, tangy, and slightly spiced flavor to the ham, enhancing its taste and providing a caramelized coating. Adjust the ingredients and spices according to your preferences, and feel free to experiment with different variations to create your own unique glaze. Enjoy your grilled ham!
