Christmas Ham


I decided today I was going to make a big Christmas dinner. Brittany and Paul came over and Brian's friend Peter. I'm not going to be making the real Christmas dinner and I've been promising Brian I'm make him a Christmas ham. He is in love with his Aunt Darrelyn's Ham glaze, so I decided to give it a try. It was super easy to do, and I got some rave reviews. Darrelyn uses a canned ham, but I'm sure you could use any kind of ham and just glaze it following these instructions:

1/3 Cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon flour
1 Teaspoon dry mustard
whole clove
gingerale

If using a canned ham, put ham, juice and all in a pan. Score the top of the ham and put dry mixture or brown sugar, flour and dry mustard on top of it. Insert whole cloves on top also. (Just space them out) Pour gingerale slowly over ham so that the mixture stays on top of the ham. gingerale should be an inch deep i pan. Baste ham as it cooks. Cook at 325 for about an hour and a half.

Like I said, super delish, and super easy.
