Sydney's Easy Baked Ham
- 1 (8 lb) pork butt (shank cut will also work)
- 1 (16 ounce) can pineapple rings
- 1 (12 ounce) bottle beer (I use J.W. Dundees Honey Brown Beer)
- 15 -20 whole cloves
- Preheat oven to 350*.
- Remove ham from packaging, reserving any juices in the packaging.
- Place ham in baking dish.
- I use a 9 x 13 pyrex pan usually.
- Pour juices from packaging into pan.
- Open pineapple and pour juice over the ham.
- Lightly score the skin of the ham in a diamond pattern.
- Using the cloves as "picks" place the pinepple rings on the ham.
- If you dont have or dont care to use the cloves, toothpicks broken in half will also work.
- Open the beer and pour that over the ham.
- Make a tent with foil over the ham, and place in oven.
- Bake for 2 - 2.5 hours, or until heated through lifting foil and basting every 10 - 15 minutes with pan juices.
- Remove ham from oven and remove pineapple and cloves.
- Baste again and start carving.
- I will also baste the meat on the platter with a little bit of the ham liquor.
