Ingredients Notes

  • Ham: Bone-in, fully cooked—shank or butt, 6-8 lbs; spiral-cut simplifies serving.
  • Pineapple Juice: Canned or fresh—sweet and juicy; unsweetened keeps it balanced.
  • Teriyaki Sauce: Store-bought or homemade—savory with a hint of sweetness; low-sodium works too.

Variations and Substitutions

This ham loves a remix! Swap pineapple juice for orange juice, mango nectar, or apple cider—shifts the fruity vibe. No teriyaki sauce? Use soy sauce with a touch of sugar, hoisin, or a BBQ blend—still savory, with a twist. Add a splash of vinegar, honey, or sesame oil for extra depth—keeps it simple but enhanced. Spice it up with a pinch of red pepper flakes, ginger, or garlic—adds heat or warmth! Gluten-free? Use tamari instead of teriyaki—check labels. Boost flavor with a bit of pineapple chunks or green onions if you’re feeling fancy—serve with stir-fried veggies, rice, or rolls for a fuller meal. This 3-ingredient base bends to your pantry and taste buds—keep it minimal or tweak it your way!

Storage Options

  • Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days—flavors deepen.
  • Freezer: Freeze slices or chunks for up to 3 months; wrap tightly.
  • Reheating: Warm in the oven at 325°F with juices, or microwave with glaze.
