Copy Cat Honey Baked Ham (Easter)

So we are having Easter times 2 this year and since I've been sick we are doing it the easy way!  I made a ham, deviled eggs and deviled egg potato salad, beans, veggie tray, fruit tray and relish tray.  This is for Saturdays Easter.  Tomorrow I will get all this back out and also serve it with an array of cheeses and rolls for sandwiches!  Easy peesy!

Here is my ham recipe.

Copy Cat Honey Baked Ham

1 ham spiral sliced
1/4 tsp ground clove
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup honey
2/3 cup butter

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2. Place ham in foil lined pan.
3. In a saucepan heat the brown sugar, clove, honey and butter. Keep glaze warm while baking ham.
4. Brush glaze over ham, and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Baste ham every 10 to 15 minutes with the honey glaze. During the last 4 to 5 minutes of baking, turn on broiler to caramelize the glaze. Remove from oven, and let sit a few minutes before serving.

After ham was done you can too with extra brown sugar and use a torch to carmelize similar to a well known company.

Chinese Roast Pork on Garlic Bread

This is one of the yummiest sandwiches!  It's quick, easy and inexpensive.  The left overs are just as good day two or use the left overs in fried rice.

1 pork tenderloin (1 1/4 lbs)
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
3 tbsp. honey
1 tsp. garlic, minced
2 tsp. seasame oil
1 loaf garlic bread
1/4 cup duck sauce

Position the rack on the lower third of the oven and preheat to 450.  Season the pork with salt and pepper.  In small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce, the honey, 1 teaspoon garlic and the sesame oil; reserve half.  Place the pork and a small roasting pan and brush with the other half of the hoisin mixture.  Roast pork until temperature reaches 150° on an instant read thermometer, about 20 minutes.  Transfer to cutting board and let rest approximately 10 minutes. Slice thinly.

Meanwhile cook garlic bread according to package directions.

In a bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce and the reserved hoisin mixture.  Toss pork in mixture and place on top of bread, drizzle with duck sauce.  Topped with other half of garlic bread and sliced into sandwich size pieces.

I serve this with coleslaw.
