How long do you cook a 3 or 4 pound ham?!
HELP!
Answers: I was given this dinner ham to cook. Its a half of those round ones. I was told its enough for about 4 people. I need to know how lon gin the oven, is there a glaze I can make for it and when do I stick in the pineapples as he wants those on it too. :(
HELP!
I baste mine with a glaze made of brown sugar, honey and pineapple juice and roast it in the oven at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes per pounds glazing again 1/2 through cooking time. You will want to cook your ham for about 1 1/2 hours to bring it up to temperature. I baste it with 1/2 the glaze before putting it into the oven and then again half way through cooking. Don't forget to score your ham before basting. Place the pineapple rings on when you baste the ham half way through the cooking process.

Is it already fully cooked where you just need to heat it through?
3-4lb ham usually takes about 1 1/2hrs to cook at 350F
you can put some brown sugar, pineapple juice in a bowl and mix together to make a glaze
put the pineapple slices with toothpicks around ham
then baste while cooking* -youre good to go:)
If it's precooked, and they usually are, you just heat it up. I'd go 350 in the oven for about an hour.

I hope this helps
Score the Ham using a sharp knife going about 1/4 inch into the meat. (Make "X" formation) pre-heat oven to 325. Brush whatever you are using for glaze over the ham (brown sugar melted in butter, honey, pineapple juice, etc). Cook the Ham uncovered continuously brushing the glaze on it for about 2 hours (internal temp should reach 165 degrees. Hope this helps
