To prepare a half ham in the Deep Covered Baker (DCB) from Pampered Chef, preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the ham, cut side down, in the DCB and cover with the lid. Bake for 20 minutes per pound or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F. Let the ham rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
There are many delicious recipe ideas for cooking a half ham in the DCB. Some popular options include glazing the ham with a mixture of honey, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard, or covering it with a pineapple and brown sugar glaze. You can also add herbs and spices, such as rosemary and garlic, to the ham for added flavor.
Yes, you can use a pre-cooked half ham in the DCB. Follow the same instructions for cooking the ham, but reduce the cooking time to 10 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F.
The best way to determine if the half ham is done cooking is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 140°F for a fully cooked ham. If you do not have a meat thermometer, you can also check for doneness by making sure the ham is hot and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
Yes, you can add vegetables to the DCB while cooking the half ham. Root vegetables, such as carrots, potatoes, and onions, work well and will absorb the flavors of the ham. Simply place the vegetables around the ham in the DCB and they will cook alongside the ham.
