Ingredients
For the Ham
- 5½ - 6 lb fully cooked boneless ham, cut into ½" slices and tied*
- Whole cloves (as needed)
For the Horseradish Glaze
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/3 cup horseradish
- ¾ cup lemon juice
Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
-
Prepare the Ham: Place the ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Insert whole cloves into the ham at even intervals to enhance the flavor.
-
Bake the Ham: Bake the ham for 1 to 1½ hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the ham to heat through.
-
Make the Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, horseradish, and lemon juice. Stir until well mixed and bring to a boil.
-
Glaze the Ham: Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Pour the horseradish glaze over the ham and bake for an additional 15 minutes, basting occasionally for that extra flavor!
-
Serve: Once done, remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute for a juicier result.
🎉 Pro Tip: Ask your meat retailer to cut and tie the ham for you, making preparation a breeze! If you can't find boneless ham, using a half ham with the bone in is a delicious alternative.
Serving Suggestion
- Serve this delicious ham alongside roasted vegetables and your favorite sides for a hearty meal. For an extra burst of flavor, offer additional horseradish sauce on the side!
Variations
- Spiced Up: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes to the glaze for an extra kick! 🌶️
- Maple Twist: Substitute brown sugar with maple syrup for a unique twist on the glaze; it adds a warm, earthy sweetness.
- Herb Infusion: For an aromatic touch, sprinkle fresh rosemary or thyme over the ham before baking.
Serve this dish with pride and watch your guests rave about the savory flavors! Enjoy! 🌟✨
