How to Make the Perfect Baked Ham | Allrecipes · Allrecipes
Nicole McLaughlin shows how to reheat spiral-cut ham tightly covered before brushing brown sugar glaze into the layers.

At A Glance // The Quick Brief
Fluff-Free Execution
  • Target //Cook at 325°F (163°C) for 100 mins.
  • Doneness //Pull when internal temperature reaches 140°F (USDA safe minimum). Rest 15 mins before slicing.
  • Golden Rule //A spiral-cut ham is the ultimate dad flex because it looks like you spent hours in the kitchen but really you just unwrapped it and painted on some glaze. Nobody needs to know your secret. Leftovers make incredible sandwiches, omelets, and fried rice all week.
  • Family Tweak //The sweet glaze is already kid-friendly. Cut slices into small strips for little hands. Serve with pineapple rings for a classic combo.

Get to the point

  1. 1

    Place 7-8 lb spiral-cut ham cut-side down on a foil-lined sheet pan and cover tightly with foil.

  2. 2

    Bake at 325°F for 60 minutes until warmed through.

  3. 3

    Mix brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and honey into a glaze; brush generously over ham.

  4. 4

    Bake uncovered 25-30 minutes more until glaze is bubbly and caramelized; rest 15 minutes before carving.

Step by step

Tap a step to cross it off
  1. Prep & Cover the Ham

    Preheat oven to 325°F. Place a 7 to 8 lb spiral-cut half ham cut-side down on a foil-lined rimmed sheet pan. Cover the entire ham tightly with aluminum foil to trap moisture.

    Why

    Cut-side down prevents the slices from drying out and lets the juices baste the meat from inside.

  2. Low & Slow Warm Through

    60 min

    Bake covered at 325°F for 60 minutes until the center of the ham reaches 120°F. The ham is already fully cooked so you are just gently reheating it.

    Why

    Low temperature reheating keeps pre-cooked ham from drying out. Patience here equals juicy ham.

  3. Mix & Apply the Glaze

    While ham heats, whisk together 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 3 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar until smooth. Remove foil from ham and brush the glaze generously over the entire surface, pushing it between the spiral slices.

    Why

    Getting glaze between the slices means every single piece has that sweet-tangy caramelized coating.

  4. Caramelize & Rest

    28 min

    Return uncovered ham to oven and bake 25 to 30 minutes more until the glaze is bubbly and deep amber and the internal temperature hits 140°F. Rest on the sheet pan for 15 minutes before carving.

    Why

    The glaze will look slightly runny coming out of the oven but sets up beautifully during the 15-minute rest.
