Glazed Smoked Boneless Ham

Updated: 5 days ago

From the farm kitchen…


Ingredients

For the Ham:

  • 1 LT Farm Meats boneless smoked ham, thawed

  • ½ cup water

For the Glaze:

  • ¾ cup brown sugar

  • ½ cup honey

  • 2 tbsp mustard (your choice of Dijon or yellow)

  • ¼ cup butter

  • ¼ tsp cinnamon

  • ¼ tsp ground cloves

  • 4 garlic cloves, smashed


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare the Ham:

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    • Remove the ham from its wrapping. Place it in a shallow baking pan.

    • Score the fat in a cross-hatch pattern using a sharp knife to help the glaze adhere.

    • Add ½ cup of water to the pan and cover the ham tightly with aluminum foil.

  2. Bake the Ham:

    • Bake the ham for 18–24 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  3. Make the Glaze:

    • In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, mustard, butter, cinnamon, ground cloves, and smashed garlic.

    • Heat gently until the sugar is melted and the ingredients are combined.

  4. Glaze and Crisp:

    • Remove the ham from the oven and baste it generously with the glaze.

    • Return the ham to the oven uncovered for 5–10 minutes to let the glaze caramelize.

    • Repeat the basting and crisping process 2–3 times, watching carefully to prevent the glaze from burning.

  5. Serve:

    • Slice the ham and serve with any remaining glaze on the side.


Serving Suggestion

For a hearty meal, pair this glazed ham with sweet potatoes, beets, and green beans for a farm-to-table experience. Enjoy the wholesome flavors of home-grown ingredients with every bite!


LT Farm Meats has boneless smoked hams which are delicious when simply slow baked and basted with a Honey/Brown Sugar/Mustard glaze.

Heat your oven to 350 degrees and remove the wrapping from the ham.

Place it in a shallow baking pan and score the fat with a sharp knife in a cross-hatch pattern (this helps the glaze to stick). Add a half cup of water and cover the ham tightly with foil and bake 18-24 minutes per pound, until the internal temperature

reaches 145 degrees.


Near the end of the baking time heat (just to melt the sugar)a glaze of:

3/4 C of brown sugar

1/2 C honey

2 T mustard

1/4 C butter

1/4 t cinnamon

1/4 t ground cloves

4 smashed garlic cloves


Remove the baked ham from the oven and baste with a coating of the glaze. Return the ham to the oven and let the glaze start to crisp. Repeat this process several times being careful not to let the glaze burn. Serve the remaining glaze with the sliced ham. We enjoyed a home-grown meal with our farm raised pork and sweet potatoes, beets and green beans from the garden.
