Molasses Coffee Glazed Ham Or Turkey Breast Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl stir together all ingredients except the ham until well blended.
• Reserve 1 cup molasses-coffee sauce in a small bowl; set aside.
• Place the ham in a lightly greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan; pour the remaining molasses-coffee mixture evenly over the ham.
• Bake (lowest oven rack) at 350 degrees for 2 hours or until a meat thermometer reaches 140 degrees, basting with sauce about every 15-20 minutes.
• Cover loosley with lightly greased foil the last 30 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning.
• Remove ham from baking pan and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before slicing.
• Heat the reserved 1 cup molasses-coffee sauce and serve with ham.
• FOR THE TURKEY BREAST; substitute one (5-6 pound) bone-in turkey breast with skin left on.
• Season with black pepper.
• Place the turkey breast in a greased 11 x 7-inch baking pan; cover tightly with foil.
• Proceed with directions above.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour; uncover and bake for another 1 hour or more or until a thermometer reads 170 degrees, basting with molasses-coffee sauce about every 15 minutes the last hour or more of baking.
• Serve with reserved sauce.

Steps:

• Stir whiskey, molasses, and brown sugar in a saucepan until brown sugar has dissolved. Place over medium heat, bring to a simmer, and turn off heat; stir salt and hot pepper sauce into mixture. Pour marinade into a large bowl.
• Place turkey breast into the marinade with skin side down; let stand for 1 hour, turning turkey breast over occasionally. Transfer turkey to a roasting pan. Retain marinade for basting.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Roast turkey breast in the preheated oven until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 45 minutes. Baste turkey occasionally with retained marinade. Allow turkey breast to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Using a sharp knife, score surface of ham with 1/4-in.-deep cuts in a diamond pattern. Cover and bake until a thermometer reads 130°, 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 hours., Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine grapefruit and orange juices. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half, 6-8 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients; return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until thickened, 12-15 minutes ., Remove ham from oven. Brush with 1/3 cup glaze. Bake, uncovered, basting occasionally with remaining glaze, until a thermometer reads 140°, 15-20 minutes longer.

Steps:

• Heat pomegranate juice, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring continuously, until sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Bring to a simmer; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring frequently, until reduced down to 1 1/2 cups, about 1 hour. Remove from heat. Let pomegranate molasses cool to room temperature, at least 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Whisk the pomegranate molasses, horseradish, mustard, and sage together in a bowl to make the glaze.
• Remove any giblets or gizzards from the turkey and place the turkey in a roasting pan. Brush with olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven, basting with the juices from the bottom of the pan every 15 minutes, for 2 hours. When an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, reads 175 degrees F (79 degrees C), brush turkey with 1 cup glaze. Continue roasting until no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes more.
• Remove turkey from the oven and brush with the remaining glaze. Cover with a loose tent of aluminum foil and allow to rest for 15 minutes before carving up that turkey.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Remove rind from ham and score the fat with a sharp kife, creating diamond shapes all over the surface.
• Stud ham with cloves (and pineapple & cherries, if desired- attach with either toothpicks or cloves).
• Place ham in roasting pan so that the wide flat cut side is down.
• Bake 2 1/2-3 hours for a whole ham, 1 3/4-2 hours for a half ham (or use the heating instructions provided on your ham wrapper, changing the cook temp if necessary as well).
• Mix dry mustard powder with the molasses and brush all over ham 30 minutes before the ham is done, returning ham to oven to contiune cooking at 325°F.
• TIP: Do not baste ham with pan drippings as this will make the glaze look dull.
• Once ham is cooked, let rest 10 minutes before carving.
• Do not eat the cloves- they provide flavoring as they bake, but should be discarded after cooking.
