I can still see the table meticulously set for a country meal at our 150-year-old family farm, and I vividly recall the aroma of ham baking! Whenever I make a ham, I think of my mom—who was, in my opinion, the best cook ever! —Rosemary Pryor, Pasadena, Maryland
Ingredients:
1 can (8 ounces) sliced pineapple
1 can (5 pounds) boneless fully cooked ham
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
maraschino cherries
Directions:
1. Drain pineapple, reserving 2 tablespoons juice; set aside pineapple and reserved juice. Save remaining juice for another use. Place ham in a baking dish. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.
2. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, mustard, cloves, vinegar and reserved pineapple juice. Score ham; place pineapple slices and cherries over ham; spoon glaze over top.
3. Bake 40-45 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 140°, basting occasionally. Yield: 8-10 servings.
