Honey Mustard Ham
{Referral links are used in this post.}
When you are cooking for a crowd, a ham is about the easiest thing you can cook. Almost all hams sold at the grocery store are pre-cooked (most are smoked or cured), so really all you have to do it heat it up! You can just toss the ham into your oven or your slow cooker and call it a day. Or you could use the spice packet that comes with some hams now. Or you can mix up your own flavors, and make your ham be whatever you want it to be!
Now, I’m not normally a big fan of honey mustard. But I am loving this Woeber’s Honey Mustard glaze on ham!
Want to know a secret? The “glaze” on this ham is just a bunch of honey mustard poured over the top! No mixing, no stirring, I just pour honey mustard out of the bottle right onto the ham. Then I use a silicone brush to smooth it around a bit. And that’s it!
And you won’t want to miss this PRO TIP – Line your baking pan with aluminum foil (I like the heavy-duty kind for this). Any honey mustard that drips off the ham onto your baking pan will burn. And it is no fun to get off later (trust me). So line your pan, and make clean up super-easy!
You will need to watch this ham for just a little bit… After the first hour of baking, take the ham out of the oven, pour some more honey mustard on the top, insert your meat thermometer, and loosely cover it with more aluminum foil. Then put it back in the oven and walk away until the meat thermometer reads 140-160 degrees in the center of the ham. If you don’t cover the ham, the honey mustard glaze will burn on the top of the ham, and it won’t look very pretty.
And that’s it! Honey Mustard Baked Ham, with a super-yummy glaze, and barely any work! Go, enjoy your company! (And enjoy your leftovers!)
Enjoy!

Question: Should the ham be scored before applying the honey mustard? Thanks!
Deb, you do not need to score the ham first. You can if you want, but it’s not necessary.
