Wood-Fired Baked Ham with Brown Sugar Glaze

Wood-Fired Baked Ham with Brown Sugar Glaze

A wood-oven baked ham is a wonderful way to make a simple holiday meal extra special! The ham is moist, tender, delicious on the inside, while the outside is sweet, sticky, and slightly charred from the brown sugar glaze. 

I brushed the ham with orange juice, Dijon mustard and rosemary, then baked it for 15 minutes uncovered.

Added a little water into the skillet and covered it tightly with foil.

Once the ham cooked for about 60 minutes, it was brushed with glaze and returned to the oven until the glaze was caramelized. Then removed from the oven, covered with foil and set aside while I grilled the pineapple slices.

If you make this recipe, I strongly suggest that you make a slightly bigger ham than you will eat at the one sitting, to ensure leftovers for sandwiches! A crusty bun, mustard, wood-oven ham, Brie, grilled pineapple, topped with arugula, is my favourite!

Disclosure: I have participated in a paid partnership with Ooni. Opinions in this post are my own.

Cook Time 1 hr 30 mins
Total Time 1 hr 40 mins
Course Dinner, Entree, Main Course
Cuisine North American
Servings 8 -10 People

Ingredients
  

  • 1 buffet ham Milieu de Cuisse Fumee – mid-thigh smoked – approximately 5 pounds
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoon fresh rosemary finely chopped

Brown Sugar Glaze

  • ½ cup orange juice
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

Pineapple Slices for Serving

  • 1 whole ripe pineapple rind removed, sliced into 8-10 slices, core removed

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Ooni Karu 16 oven to 350°F.
  • Place the ham, flat side down in the Ooni Cast Iron Skillet Pan (9”).
  • Combine orange juice, Dijon mustard and rosemary. Brush over ham.
  • Bake the ham for 10-15 minutes uncovered, rotating 3-4 times until exterior of ham is beginning to char.
  • Pour 2 table spoons of water into the skillet and cover tightly with foil.
  • Roast at 325°F for 60 minutes, turning ¼ turn every 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, create a slurry with half the orange juice and cornstarch (mixing in a small bowl before adding it to the glaze to avoid the corn starch lumping in the glaze) combine glaze ingredients and bring to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer 2-3 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • After 60 minutes remove from the ham from the oven and add fuel to increase the heat to 425°F.
  • Brush the ham with the glaze and return to the oven until the glaze is caramelized (tips – turn the ham often to avoid the sugar burning – keep the fuel hatch open if the flames are rolling to much towards the ham).
  • Cook until the ham has reached an internal temperature of 140°F (about 15 minutes).
  • When the ham is cooked, remove it from the oven, cover with foil and set aside while you grill the pineapple slices.
  • Place the Ooni Duel-Sided Grizzler Plate in the oven and increase the heat to 450°F. Preheat the pan for 5 minutes.
  • Brush the pineapple slices on both sides with the liquid in the bottom of the ham pan.
  • Place the slices directly on the hot Grizzler pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side.
  • Serve the hot pineapple slices with the ham so that every guest gets a juicy slice. Enjoy!

Notes

A smoked ham has been cooked. Be sure to check the package to ensure it says it is “fully cooked”. A fully cooked ham just needs to be heated through… cook to 140°F. Substitute any quality smoked ham as available.
Use a fruit wood (like apple or cherry) to add a little extra flavour to the ham & pineapple.

Stir-Fried Black Rice with Fried Eggs & Parmesan R Stir-Fried Black Rice with Fried Eggs & Parmesan Roasted Broccoli

Disclaimer… this is not your traditional take-out style, fried rice with eggs and broccoli! This is a meal perfect for date-night, a weeknight family dinner, or a Saturday evening with friends! Cook the rice the day before and even choose to throw together the salad dressing in advance and you can have dinner on the table in 30 minutes with very little mess! The flavors are so surprising, they will keep you digging in bite after bite! Plus, the egg makes this a delicious, nutritious meal.
