Ham with Pineapple
A deliciously sweet and savory ham dish, perfect for large gatherings or special occasions.
Ingredients
- bone-in ham (5.44 kg)
- whole cloves (120 grams)
- pineapple rings in heavy syrup (567 grams)
- lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage (355 milliliters)
- packed brown sugar (100 grams)
- chopped maraschino cherries (113 grams)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C).
- Place ham in a roasting pan. Use a sharp knife to score ham rind with a diamond pattern. Press a clove into the center of each diamond.
- Drain juice from pineapple rings into a medium bowl; stir in lemon-lime soda and brown sugar. Coat ham with juice mixture and arrange pineapple rings on ham. Place a maraschino cherry in the center of each pineapple ring and secure with a toothpick.
- Bake uncovered, basting frequently with pan juices, in the preheated oven until the internal temperature of the ham is 160 degrees F (72 degrees C), 4 to 5 hours. Be sure the meat thermometer does not touch the bone. Remove toothpicks before serving.
