Notes
Baking Tips:
- We start the ham flat side down and when we go to baste, flip it on it's side so that we can get in between the slices with the glaze.
- You can turn the heat down to 300℉, but we don't so we can get some crispy ham.
- If you don't have fresh pineapple, pineapple rings and juice from the pineapple can work perfect.
- Turn left overs into sandwiches, scalloped potatoes and ham or ham and bean soup
