BBQ Orange and Mustard Glazed Ham

Christmas Ham Glaze
This glaze is simple yet tasty, why not cook it outside on the BBQ and free up the oven for the turkey and other Christmas cooking.
Ingredients
- 2 medium oranges, finely sliced
- 12-15 whole cloves
- 1/2 cup Chelsea Golden Syrup
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
Method
- Carefully run your fingers under the skin of the ham and lift it away. Do this slowly so that you finish with a smooth layer of fat.
- Place on a rack in a foil lined baking tray.
- Arrange overlapping layers of oranges slices over the ham, securing each orange slice with a whole clove and a few toothpicks.
- Mix together syrup and Dijon mustard, brush the orange covered ham liberally with glaze.
- Pour 2 cups water around the ham.
- Preheat lidded barbecue to 200°C, place ham tray in the centre of the barbecue.
- Cover and return to temperature, this usually takes about 15 minutes.
- Turn the gas to low and cook at 200°C for 45 minutes to glaze ham. Alternatively, cook for a further hour or until hot through to the bone.
- Serve the ham hot or cold.
Oven baking method
- Bake in the oven at 180° for 30-45 minutes, brushing with glaze every 10-15 minutes.
- To serve hot, bake at 160°C, allowing 20 minutes per kilogram, brushing with glaze every 15 minutes until it has all been used.
