EASY BROWN SUGAR GLAZED HAM

Author: Milisa Armstrong Miss in the Kitchen

Easy Brown Sugar Glazed Ham is a great addition to any holiday meal. This spiral sliced ham is basted with pineapple juice and crusted with brown sugar and warm spices for the most flavorful ham.

A spiral sliced ham is the ultimate centerpiece for Easter, Christmas or any special celebration. This Easy Brown Sugar Glazed Ham is flavorful and delicious and is made with just a few simple ingredients. 

Pineapple Juice combines with the brown sugar and spices to create a tender, juicy and delicious glazed holiday ham. 

A bone-in spiral sliced ham is my favorite for holiday meals. You are going to get the most flavorful ham when it’s cooked with the bone. Plus you can keep that bone for a nice pot of beans. I love the spiral cut because it makes it so easy to serve.

HOW MUCH HAM SHOULD I BUY?

With a bone-in, spiral cut ham you can figure about 3/4 pound per person. A Petit Jean Spiral Cut Half Ham will feed about 10 people.
