Ham Recipes
Raspberry Chipotle Glazed Ham
Yield: 16 to 20 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (9 to 10 pound) cooked bone-in spiral-cut ham
- 1 1/2 cups seedless raspberry preserves
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 2 or 3 canned whole chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, drained and chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon pink or black peppercorns, coarsely cracked
- Fresh raspberries and fresh herb sprigs (optional)
Instructions
- Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest portion of the meat but not touching bone. Bake in a 325 degrees F oven until the thermometer registers 130 degrees F. Allow 1 1/2 to 2 1/4 hours.
- Meanwhile, in a saucepan, stir together raspberry preserves, vinegar, chipotle peppers, and garlic. Bring just to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
- Brush ham with some of the sauce. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes more or until the thermometer registers 135 degrees F, brushing once or twice with additional sauce.
- Remove from oven. Sprinkle with peppercorns. Cover ham with foil and let stand for 15 minutes. (Temperature of the meat will rise 5 degrees during standing.)
- To serve, carve the ham.
- Reheat remaining sauce and pass with ham.
- Garnish with raspberries and herbs, if desired.
