Beer, Brown Sugar & Mustard Glazed Ham
Tis the season to be jolly! While it’s not the norm to glaze a ham with amber gold, we’ve given it a crack. You can even do this one on the barbie and a sneaky can for the cook is always encouraged!
what you need
- 1 Three Aussie Farmers Half Leg Ham
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 cans beer (we used lager)
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- 20 cloves
how to make it
- Pre-heat fan forced oven 180⁰C.
- Carefully remove the rind of the ham and score fat in a diamond pattern. Press a clove into the centre of each diamond.
- Wrap the hock in foil to prevent burning.
- Place a wire rack over a baking dish, then place ham on the rack.
- To make the glaze, combine sugar, beer and mustard in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for approx. 20 mins. or until thickened
- Brush the ham generously with approx. ⅓ of the glaze, then place in the oven for 1 hour. Baste every 15 mins.
- Remove from oven, pour any leftover glaze on top then rest for 30mins.
- Carve into slices and serve. Enjoy!
Our Leg Ham’s are naturally wood smoked and cooked on the bone. We offer both traditional Hock end and Butt end half leg hams. Glaze and roast in the oven, or slice and dice for sandwiches, pastas, risottos and pizzas!
