Beer, Mustard and Brown Sugar Glazed Ham Recipe
How to make Beer, Mustard and Brown Sugar Glazed Ham
Method
- Make the ham glaze first. Combine ale, sugar, mustard and golden syrup into a medium-sized saucepan. Bring to the boil, stirring, over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes or until reduced by a half.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 180˚C (160˚C fan-forced). Using a sharp knife, score the ham fat (not the flesh) in a diamond pattern at 2cm intervals. Wrap the ham hock in foil (this prevents it from burning).
- Place ham on a greased rack in a large baking pan lined with foil (or you can use a disposable baking tray).
- Brush the ham fat a few times, to evenly coat with the glaze. Place ham in oven and roast.
- Brush with remaining glaze occasionally, for 1 hour or until ham is golden and caramelised. Set aside to cool for 30 minutes.
- Slice and serve warm or cold with a selection of mustards.
Tip: If the glaze thickens on standing, warm the glaze over low heat, so it spreads easily over the ham.
