Apricot Ham

Apricot and brown sugar ham is another very tasty recipe. Make this at Christmas and everybody will be merry!

Apricot Ham:

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 (10 pound) fully-cooked spiral cut ham
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup apricot jam
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
  2. Place the ham cut side down onto a sheet of aluminum foil. I like to put the shiny side up. Mix together the brown sugar, apricot jam and mustard powder in a small bowl. Brush onto the ham using a pastry or barbeque brush. Reserve any leftover glaze. Enclose the foil around the ham and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 2 hours in the preheated oven, or if you ham is a different size, figure 14 minutes per pound. Apply the remaining glaze 20 minutes before the ham is done.
