Easter Ham


Spiral or bone in half hams:

1 can of pineapple rings in pineapple juice
1 smoked, bone-in ham or spiral ham (I prefer)
1/4 cup cup of firmly packed brown sugar (dark preferred)
Reynolds oven turkey bag (This eliminates basting for the bag does the trick)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees with rack in mid position. Score ham with a sharp knife in a pattern of 1 1/4-inch diamonds if you are not using a spiral ham. Place ham, cut side down in the oven bag and place in a foil roasting pan next add the whole can of pineapple rings including juice and sprinkle in the brown sugar. Bake for 90 minutes depending on less or more than average pound. Remove and cool at least 30 minutes before slicing. Check on oven bag box how many minutes per pound. Some like to spike their hams with cloves, this is optional according to your taste.
