Capilano Honey Glazed Ham Shoulder/Leg

  • Intermediate

  • 2 hours 20 mins

A Christmas ham worth sneaking back to the kitchen for. This honey glazed ham from Pig & Rooster BBQ has Capilano Honey at its heart, with black cherry jam, cranberry sauce and mustard stirred into the glaze. Brush it on generously as the ham bakes, giving it time to turn sticky and caramelised around the edges. Bring it to the table for Christmas lunch, then look forward to ham sandwiches on Boxing Day.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Capilano Pure Honey
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup cranberry sauce
  • ½ cup black cherry jam
  • 4tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • ½ of a juiced orange
  • ¼ cup pineapple juice
  • 2 tbsp whole grain mustard
  1. Preheat oven to 180C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Using a sharp knife, cut around the shank of the ham, then run your fingers under the skin to gently lift and peel it away, leaving the fat layer intact.
  3. Score the fat in a diamond pattern, cutting about 5mm deep and taking care not to cut into the meat.
  4. Place the ham on the lined tray. Combine all glaze ingredients in a bowl and mix well until combined.
  5. Brush the glaze generously over the ham, working it into the scored fat.
  6. Bake, brushing with more glaze every 25 minutes, until the ham is cooked through and the sauce is richly caramelised (about 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on size). There may be excess marinade, you don't have to use it all.
  7. Rest for 15 minutes, then carve and serve.
  8. Bonus tip: if you have left over sauce, boil it and place into a dish for dipping/pouring!
