1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Smithfield fully-cooked Ham
cup Light Brown Sugar
3 ounces (1/2 of a 6 oz can) Frozen Orange Juice Concentrate (undiluted)
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
teaspoon Mace

Directions

BASTED

Report back on my post on Ellen Court's request for Ham bastes...

I got a great deal on a Smithfield fully-cooked Ham and (basically) followed my butchers advice:

I baked it (uncovered) at 325@F for two hours in a foil lined pan...

Drained all fat and juices from the pan...

Then basted it.

Return to oven for 1 hour, basting with pan juices every 20 minutes...

It is *Fantastic* !!!!!!!

The baste caramelized like an orange Toffee and the ham is so tender you can flake it like a piece of salmon...

I'm interested in trying this with Marischino Cherry Juice and Sour Cherry Preserves (preferrably Greek of Lebanese)...
