Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F.

Place the pineapple, mustard, and brown sugar in a saucepan, stir to combine, and cook over medium-low heat until the pineapple begins to soften and the brown sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.

Place the ham in a 13×9 inch baking dish and coat with the pineapple sauce.

Roast the ham, basting with the pineapple sauce every 30 minutes, until warmed through, about 1 1/2-2 hours.

Slice the ham and serve topped with sauce from the roasting pan.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Score the Fat Cap Strategically ✂️
Cut shallow crosshatch patterns into the ham's fat layer before glazing to allow the brown sugar mixture to penetrate deeply and create a caramelized crust that locks in flavor.
Build Glaze Layers for Maximum Flavor 🎨
Apply the pineapple glaze in multiple thin coats during the last 45 minutes of baking, allowing each layer to caramelize slightly for a glossy, complex finish rather than one heavy coating.
Reserve Fresh Pineapple for Final Garnish 🍍
Save some chopped fresh pineapple to add during the final 10 minutes of cooking so it maintains its bright texture and flavor, providing a delightful contrast to the sweet, cooked glaze.
Temper Your Dijon Mustard First 🥄
Whisk the Dijon mustard with a small amount of warm glaze before combining with the full batch to prevent lumps and ensure smooth, even distribution throughout the glaze.
Tent with Foil to Control Browning 🔒
Cover the ham loosely with foil during the first half of cooking, then remove it to allow the glaze to caramelize properly without burning the exterior.
