Honey Ham Brine

Easter is just around the corner and yes, I would rather you and your family come to brunch at Magnolia and May but in case you aren’t I’m going to give you the recipe for a KILLER honey ham! This ham can be the center piece for a memorable brunch at home with the family and guess what? It’s super easy to make!

Honey Ham Brine

The Ingredients

One Ham (Can be bone in or boneless)

1 gallon of water

1/2 cup Salt

2 cups of Honey

1 bunch Rosemary

1 bunch thyme

5 cloves of Garlic

1 Tablespoon ground Black Pepper

1 Tablespoon Red Pepper Flake

Git-R-Done

Step 1: Place all ingredients (Except the ham) in a pot and boil to make the salt and honey disolve.

Step 2: Place Ham in a vessel large enough to hold ham and brine.

Step 3: Allow brine to cool.

Step 4: Cover Ham in brine and let sit in the refrigerator for a week.

Step 5: Pull ham off brine after a week and cook it!

Pro Tip: Do not use a spiral cut ham for this. For the most part they come already cooked and seasoned.

Pro Tip 2: You can use this for pork chops! Just brine the chops overnight and you’re good to go.

Cheers!
