Time 13h

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 (10 pound) fully-cooked spiral cut ham
1 pound light brown sugar
3 cups milk
3 (20 ounce) cans crushed pineapple, drained

Steps:

Trim any visible fat from the surface of the ham and place cut side down in a roasting pan. Pour enough milk over the ham so that it ends up about 1/4 inch deep in the bottom of the roasting pan. Use your hands to pack the ham in a generous coating of brown sugar. Cover the brown sugar with a layer of crushed pineapple, packed on in the same manner. It is okay to have a few bare spots but try not to. Cover the ham with aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
When the oven is hot, place the ham, still covered in foil, into the oven. Roast for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the aluminum foil and baste with any juices that have accumulated in the bottom of the pan. Continue roasting for 30 more minutes, or until ham is heated through.

HAM WITH LESS SALT

Ham With Less Salt image

To me, ham has too much salt. I didn't get it very often because of that. After doing a search on the internet to see if there was a way to take some of the salt out of a ham, I found a suggestion on the Morton Salt site. I have done this method three times since finding their suggestion. This method really does work. It doesn't take all of the salt out of a ham, but it takes a lot of it out. It makes the ham taste much better. It even works on Spiral Cut hams. This is for cut hams. I don't know if this will work on a whole ham. This needs to be done 24 hours before cooking the ham. Cooking time is the time it takes to soak the ham. I had to put in specific sizes of ingredients so I put the size/amount as a suggestion. You might need more water, depending on the size of ham and pot you are using.

Ingredients

4 lbs ham
1 gallon water

Steps:

Take the wrapper off of the ham.
Place the ham, cut side down, in a large pan or stew pot, large enough so that the ham doesn't stick out of the pot too much.
Fill the pan with cold water so that 3/4 of the ham is under the water.
Place the pot in the refrigerator.
After 12 hours take the ham out of the refrigerator and drain all of the water out. Follow steps 2 to 4 again.
After the second 12 hours (making it a total of 24 hours), take the pan out of the refrigerator and drain the water.
Remove the ham from the pan, rinse it, and put it in the pan or crock pot in which you are going to cook it.
Cook it any way you want to.
I usualy put mine in the crock pot and let it cook until it is done.
With a spiral cut ham, it only needs a couple of hours in the crockpot for it to get hot.
