I have to admit, every time I have made a spiral ham I always used the included glaze packet. I just never took the time to make my own glaze. Coca-Cola has always been my favorite soft drink. I think that love goes all the way back to my grandfather. There was always a coke (and a smile!) to be had when we visited. One of the highlights of spending time with him was hitting up the store and dropping off the returnable coke bottles. Ah the memories!

How to make Coca-Cola Ham

For this recipe you will need a spiral cut ham, a can of coke, and brown sugar. Seriously, that is it! And you want to make sure to use a regular coke, no DIET coke here! This is the only time the sugar in the coke will be your friend. 

First, you are going to rub the brown sugar all over the ham. Make sure to get the brown sugar all in between the slices. Then, just pour that can of coke all over the ham. Then cover the ham with aluminum foil and bake. 

A fully cooked spiral ham needs to bake for 10 minutes per pound at 350 degrees. Every 30 minutes of cook time you will want to baste the ham with the glaze. The last 20 to 30 minutes of cook time, uncover the ham. This allows the glaze to brown and caramelize. 

Pour the glaze into a pan and bring to a simmer. Add a little cornstarch mixed with water to thicken. Pour the thickened glaze all over the ham so that it really clings to all those ham slices. 

This ham goes perfectly served up with some of my famous Mac and Cheese and my dad's mashed potatoes.
