The ham was very moist and delicious. I used the marmalade alternative so I did not find it tasted much of ginger, but it was wonderful and I will be doing it again.

This is a really good recipe! Today was the 2nd time I've made it, and once again it was a hit. I used a bone in smoked ham, 8lbs. I put in in the crock pot with the ginger ale for about 4 hours...which I may shorten next time by just a tad. I then finished it off in the oven with the glaze as directed. I did make double the glaze because it is so good and wanted to make sure the ham was thoroughly coated : And definitely make sure to line your roasting pan with foil, or use a disposable one. Cleaning cooked on sugary glaze is not fun. This is a really easy recipe that tastes delicious but isn't the normal ham everyone tends to make.

Everyone loved the ham. I did use a pre cooked ham and it was incredible! I could not believe how EVERYONE even the fickled ones all raved about the flavor! No more boring cloves for our hams. You recipes are easy to follow and everyone loves them! Ann Kankaanpaa from AZ

A friend at work made this and brought it in for all of us to try. This was about the best tasting ham I have ever had. This is a recipe that is now in my permanent collection of "keepers" This would be excellent for a holiday meal, instead of the "traditional" meal.

I too am confused as to what type of ham to buy. The only uncooked type I can find in California is a totally raw pork shank...don't think that is right. A cooked one might not work - like the review below said - could fall apart.

I would love to try this out - can anyone shed some light on the ham???

I want to try this but am not sure what cut of meat to buy. Boiling an American cured ham for 4 1/2 hours seems to long. Could it be that this recipe is for a fresh ham? Thanks for any ideas about the kind of American ham I can buy from DazeyChurn

This probably goes without saying, but it was mentioned, on Nigella's program, that you'll want to cook the ham in the gingerale until it reaches an internal temp. of 165 degrees F.

I saw Nigella make this recipe on the Food Network. It caught my eye and finally I decided to make this for Christmas. I had not really paid much attention the size of the ham that I had bought (21 poundand I did not have a pot large enough to "boil" the ham as the recipe stated. I used my turkey roaster instead. I cooked the ham at 350 and ensured that it was covered with the ginger ale at all times - rotating the hame from time to time to make sure that it did not burn on the bottom. I also had to substitute orange marmalade instead. I added fresh grated ginger to the sauce for an extra zip.

What a WONDERFUL surprise this was. My entire family raved on the flavor. Many wanted extra sauce. Next time, I am going to have to make some extra sauce just for all the sandwiches.

Way to go Nigella. Thank you for being a wonderful spirit and breathe of fresh air on the Network.
