Bar-B-Qued Ham Slices

Mary Lepine

Mary Lepine offered this sumptuous bar-b-qued ham. Delicious hot or cold, it’s guaranteed company success. Serve with an avocado-fruit salad and hot rolls.

Simmer 1 cup pineapple juice

1 cup apricot nectar (1 small can)

¼ cup prepared mustard

1 teaspoon whole cloves

2 tablespoons brown sugar

½ cup grenadine syrup for 5 minutes and cool.

Marinate 2-4 slices center cut ham 1 ½ inches thick, for 2 hours or longer, turning occasionally. Trim off excess fat and score the edges of ham before marinating.

Bar-b-q over medium fire-not too close to the coals. Do not sear or burn the ham.

Cook 45 minutes.

Slice ham diagonally in ⅛ inch slices. Each ham slice serves 2-3 persons, depending on the size of the center cut.
