    I made this ham for Christmas 2010 and I will do it this year for 2011. I rinsed my chipotles well and removed the seeds and minced them. The pepper goes well with the sweetness. I will use mango-orange juice instead of peach nectar. Day-after ham is the best, saving the hambone and drippings for greens on New Year's Eve. Thanks Big Daddy.

    Best ever. I've always used brown sugar and pineapple juice on just a regular ham. Since watching Aaron I love the brown sugar, honey mix with the spiral ham. The only thing I do different is I use an upstate apple cider from an apple farm named Beak & Skiff. WONDERFUL!!!!!!

    This was one of the best hams I have ever tasted. The chipotle peppers mixed with the peach and brown sugar flavors really gave it something special. I saved the juices/toasted sugar from the bottom of the pan to pour over the top of the ham. It was fantastic! Thank you Aaron!

    Fantastic! instead of peach nectar and OJ, we used Naked brand Mighty Mango juice and even my picky eaters liked it!

    I used your recipe for my Christmas ham and my family loved it. My husband said it was the best ham he ever had. I am making it a second time when I found a non-spiral ham sale at the grocery store. So I am cutting slits into it. It is so easy to make for a mid-week cold night dinner. Thank you Aaron for a fabulous recipe.

    fyi- I have made this recipe many times since I first posted. When I can't find peach nectar at the store, I have used peach preserves or canned peaches in heavy syrup and pureed them in a blender. Works great.

    Let me begin by saying I do not like ham. However, my husband loves ham and that is what he wanted for New Years dinner. I was dreading it until I saw this recipe. Love, love, loved it and so did my husband. Had to make a slight variation as none of my local grocery stores carry Chipotle so used a fresh Jalapeno (without the seeds instead. Next time (and yes there will definitely be a next time, I think I might try leaving off the brown sugar and honey glaze as I thought the peach, orange, pepper distributed throughout was fine.

    fyi for Dourri - look in the juice section of your supermarket for Kerns Peach nectar and as you can see I used fresh peppers rather than Chipotle.
