Can anyone tell me how to bake a ham using Coca-cola?!
1 (10 to 12 pound) bone-in ham
Whole cloves
1 (1-pound) box dark brown sugar
1 (12-ounce) can Coca-Cola (do not substitute with another brand or use diet)
1 (14-ounce) can pineapple rings, drained and the juice reserved
1 cup sweet Concord grape wine
10 to 12 maraschino cherries
Preheat oven to 325*F (160*C).
Using a sharp knife, remove the rind from ham. Score surface of ham crosswise and lengthwise, forming a crisscross pattern about 1/4-inch deep and 1-inch apart. Place 1 clove in the center of each square.
Place ham, fat side up, in a roasting pan. Press brown sugar onto the surface of the ham. Expect some sugar to fall into the roasting pan. Place in oven and bake until brown sugar just begins to melt, about 30 minutes.
Pour the Coca-Cola over ham, mixing with melted sugar in bottom of roasting pan. Baste ham with the cola mixture and bake an additional 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine reserved pineapple juice and the wine in a small bowl. Baste ham with pineapple mixture every 20 minutes.
Bake ham for a total of 16 minutes per pound. During the last 20 minutes of baking time, remove ham from oven and decorate with the pineapple rings. Use 2 to 3 wooden picks to hold each ring in place. Place a cherry in the center of each ring, also using a wooden pick. Return to oven and continue to bake the final 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to stand for at least 15 minutes before transferring to serving platter.
Skim excess fat from pan juices and serve with the ham.
Serves 10 to 12.

I have used Coca-cola & Pepsi, Coke is better.
We have done it for generations.
take a whole ham, poke Whole cloves into fatty side, up.
pat brown sugar all over. then pour the can of Coca-cola.
cover and bake as long as directed on package.
I like to get a honey glazed spiral sliced ham and just heat it according to the directions, but place a few pineapple slices on top and dump a can of coke over top of it (loosen the slices so that the coke gets down into it) every 15 min to half a hour, spoon more of the coke that is in the bottom of the pan over top of it again. It's great.
Just use equal parts honey and coke mixed and pour that all over the ham. Let her rip for about 3 hours @ 350 baste every 15 minutes after the first hour.
Score the ham, add some cloves in the ham. Pour pinapple juice over the ham. Rub mustard over the whole ham. Then pour honey over it, put pinapple rings with tooth picks over the top, and cover with brown sugar. Let it cook in the pinapple juice in a shallow pan. It will absorb the juice. When it is done, slice the ham and pour the juice over the slices.
Dunno, how to do it... But I'm learning with all the nice answers here...
