This is the perfect ham recipe for the holidays! My mother taught me how to make this brown sugar glazed ham and we have enjoyed it for years! It only has a few ingredients and the recipe is so easy to follow.
Also, the recipe can be changed for those individuals that are on a diabetic diet. For example, the regular brown sugar can be exchanged with a brown sugar substitute, so that there is less sugar in this meal.
This recipe only calls for a few ingredients that can be purchased at any local supermarket. Plus, I have given you a list below of different dishes to serve with this brown sugar glazed ham.
Be sure to SAVE THE HAM BONE (plus any pineapples & cherries) and place it into the freezer to later be cooked in a pot of pinto beans! YUMMO! And of course, you might as well cook some fried potatoes and cornbread to go with your yummy pinto beans! LOL

Thank you for a great recipe, i can’t wait to try for Sunday dinner company. Your video and tips,were much appreciated. My question is, should i keep the ham juice in packaging when i first open ham in baking dish or discard,does it make ham more moist leaving it?
Again, thank you.
