Honey Marinade Ham With Spiced Orange Sauce

Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post. I did receive three hams from Frick’s Quality Meats in order to compete in the Frick’s Blogger Recipe Challenge. All opinions are my own.

This honey marinade ham recipe goes one step further than just marinading the ham.

It also calls for a spiced honey sauce to glaze the ham giving it that extra special touch that only a glaze can give a ham.

Holiday Flavor From A Honey Marinade Ham Year Round

While it is true the flavors of orange, cinnamon and nutmeg with a touch of brown butter remind people of the holidays, this ham is delicious anytime of the year.

For this recipe, I used the Frick’s Gourmet Ham With Natural Juices.

It was presliced and precooked, so it was simply a matter of marinading the ham, making the glaze and heating the ham up.

It doesn’t get any simpler than that!

Here is my recipe.

Final Thoughts On This Honey Marinade Ham Recipe

Since the Frick’s Gourmet Ham With Natural Juices is already precooked, the marinade is not done out of necessity, but rather to add an additional layer of flavor.

Creating truly remarkable recipes really requires laying the flavors and creating depth as far as I am concerned.

My family – and myself – simply loved this recipe – in part because of how lean and delicious the Frick’s Gourmet Ham With Natural Juices was.

There was no fat to cut off and no bad portions in the ham to feed the pets, which I consider a win.

Let’s face it, no one wants to spend their hard earned money to buy a ham and then end up not being able to eat most of it.

All of the hams I have tried from Frick’s Meats have been really great.

They taste delicious and we have been able to eat every morsel – with the exception of the bone in the bone-in ham, of course!

However, that bone was useful for seasoning other foods and making bone broth, so even it did not go to waste!

I encourage you to order a Frick’s Meats ham and give them a try.

They do pack the meat in a lot of ice, so there is no worries about the meat thawing in shipment!
