Ham

My family loves ham. I usually make one at Thanksgiving along with the turkey. The thing to remember about ham is to pick the right one. When picking out a ham always pick the "butt" cut. It makes the best tasting ham. This is easy to make recipe. Remember a little ham goes a long way.

Ingredients

Ham - butt cut
Spicy mustard
Brown sugar

Helpful Hints

Be generous with the coating and make sure you cover the entire ham. Follow the package time for cooking the ham, which usually is 20-25 minutes per pound at 325 degrees. You can freeze the leftover ham in freezer bags for future use. 

Ham is delicious with eggs for breakfast or cut up in a salad for lunch. Enjoy exploring the different ways you can use your ham.

Always remember to have fun in the kitchen.

Helpful hints: Steam green beans to finish off this meal.

For me this meal is not complete unless I have all the components. The tastes remind me of my childhood. It’s one of my favorite meals. Try parts of it or all of it.
