Grilled Ham with Red-Eye Glaze
Preparation and cooking time: 15 minutes
A Southern Classic, moved to the barbecue grill. The glazed is boiled to reduce it a bit, then used both to baste the ham and as a finishing sauce. As the ham is already fully cooked, this is a very quick dish.
Ingredients:
- 1 piece of ham, 1/2 - 3/4" thick (1.5cm), 340gr, 12oz
- 1/2 cup coffee (save some from breakfast or use instant - make it strong)
- 1/3 cup brown sugar, 45gr, 1.6oz
- 3 tbs whole grain mustard, 45gr, 1.6oz
- 2 tbs cider vinegar, 30gr, 1oz
Instructions:
- Mix sugar, coffee, mustard and vinegar in a small saucepan. Boil for 5 minutes, reducing by half.
- Cook ham on the barbecue grill, 5 - 7 minutes per side, basting with the Red-Eye Glaze until ham is a lovely mahogany color. Or sauté in olive oil in nonstick skillet for same amount of time - until it starts to brown.
- Pour any remaining glaze over the ham and serve. As ham is cooked there is no problem using basting sauce to finish.
