Ingredients:


- 1 (6-pound) fully-cooked, bone-in ham
- 1 fresh pineapple
- 2 (6-ounce) cans pineapple juice
- 1 cup brown sugar
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 325Β°F (165Β°C) and place the ham, cut-side down, in a roasting pan.
- Peel the pineapple using a sharp knife, removing any remaining brown spots or skin. Slice the pineapple into Β½-inch-thick rings, and use a round cutter to take out the cores. Secure the pineapple rings to the ham with toothpicks.
- Bake the ham in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- While the ham is baking, mix the pineapple juice and brown sugar in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave on medium power until the glaze is boiling and slightly thickened. Be cautious, as the glaze will be sticky and very hot.
- Pour half of the glaze evenly over the ham and pineapple rings, then return the ham to the oven and bake for another 30 minutes.
- Pour the remaining glaze over the ham and continue baking until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham reads 140Β°F (60Β°C), which should take another 30 to 60 minutes.
Enjoy your delicious, sweet, and tangy Brown Sugar and Pineapple Glazed Ham! This should make your ham the highlight of any meal!
