Ingredients

1 (18-pound) cured ham
2 (12-ounce) cans cola
Canned pineapple rings
Brown sugar
Maraschino cherries
Cloves

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

Place ham in a shallow roasting pan. Baste the ham with cola. With toothpicks, stick some pineapple rings on the ham, about 4 or 5 rings. Sprinkle some brown sugar on the rings. With toothpicks, place a cherry in each pineapple ring hole and then stick some cloves in the rings. Cover it with foil. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes per pound of ham, or until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F. Baste with cola about every 30 minutes during cooking.

Delicious !!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this ham as a twist to my normal pineapple/brown sugar/mustard basting. It was so easy and so delicious I make it all... the time now. I even use cola now when making ham barbeque. Everyone loves that sweet flavor. As always, Paula proves she's queen of the kitchen!Read more
