Bourbon Glazed Ham Recipe

First the ham is placed in a large pot with an onion and lots of Coca Cola. It’s simmered for about an hour and the coke helps tenderize it and flavor it. Since the ham is already cooked and it’s pretty much brought up to temperature at this point, you only need to bake it for about 20 minutes which is great for holidays when oven space is precious.

Type Of Ham To Use

You can use either bone-in or boneless ham. I meant to get one that was pre-sliced, but didn’t. Whoops! So either pre-sliced or unsliced works. Whichever one you use, make sure it is a fully cooked ham.

A deliciously sweet glaze of bourbon, dark brown sugar, Dijon mustard, cayenne pepper, and black pepper gives this Bourbon and Coke Ham a wonderful finish.

Ways To Use Leftover Ham

Whenever I make a ham, we always have lots of leftovers. There are so many great ways to use leftover ham. Some of my favorites are this easy Ham and Cheese Quiche, this creamy Ham Tetrazzini, and this wonderful Ham and Tortellini Soup with White Beans.
