Instant Pot Ham
Description
The Instant Pot Ham recipe highlights a spiral, bone-in ham being coated with a glaze of orange marmalade, brown sugar, orange juice, mustard, and black pepper, combining sweetness and slight tang. Cooking the ham with the fat side up in the pressure cooker allows even heat distribution and moisture retention. After a 15-minute meat setting cooking cycle and natural pressure release, the ham is further glazed with the reserved sauce for added flavor sheen. The glaze imparts a sticky exterior that contrasts the tender, juicy ham inside.
The approach is both hands-off and effective for ensuring juicy meat with an appetizing crust. The ham served warm can be a centerpiece for special occasions. Practical details include storing leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to four days or freezing them for two to three months, suitable for later use in casseroles or soups.
Ingredients
- ½ cup orange marmalade
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- black pepper
- 4-6 pounds ham spiral, bone-in
Instructions
- Whisk marmalade, brown sugar, orange juice, mustard, and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Spray the inside of your instant pot and place your ham in it, with the fat side up.
- Coat the ham with the glaze. Secure the lid on the instant pot and cook on the meat setting for 15 minutes. Let the pot naturally release.
- Take ham out. Reglaze with any leftovers from the pot and serve warm.
Notes
- Store cooked ham in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- For longer storage, freeze ham in a Ziploc bag with air pressed out for 2-3 months.
- Use leftover ham to add flavor to soups and casseroles.
