Dr. Pepper and Pineapple Glazed Ham

Ham is a classic holiday dish that is easy to prepare and always a crowd-pleaser. It is also delicious served as leftovers!

The combination of Dr. Pepper and pineapple juice creates a unique flavor! The Dr. Pepper combined with the sweetness of the pineapple juice creates a delicious glaze that infuses the ham with a unique flavor profile.

You can either use the liquid to baste the ham periodically during cooking or create a glaze by reducing the liquid to a syrupy consistency.
