<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nStore any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the ham slices in a airtight container for up to 2 months. Thaw on the counter at room temperature for an hour or so or in the fridge overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To reheat leftover ham and prevent it from drying out, you can microwave for 1 to 2 minutes until hot. A second option is to add the ham to a piece of foil with a little bit of stock and reheat in a 300\u00baF oven for 8 to 10 minutes until warmed through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>FAQs<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nHow do you keep the ham from drying out while baking?<\/strong> Be sure to tightly cover your ham and roasting pan with foil. This will trap in the liquid and moisture from the cola at the bottom, and the steam will keep the ham moist and tender as it cooks. Keep an eye on the liquid at the bottom of the pan too - there should always be about 1 cups worth. Add a splash of cola, water or stock, if needed.<\/p> <\/div>
Can I use Pepsi instead of Coke?<\/strong> Absolutely! Any dark cola, like Pepsi, Dr. Pepper or even Root Beer works great. And of course, any of the generic brands taste just as delicious.<\/p> <\/div>
What are some easy ways to use up leftover ham?<\/strong> The possibilities are endless! You can make ham and cheese sandwiches (chilled or toasted on a griddle), chop cubes for a breakfast hash, use a few slices and the hock to flavor split pea soup, add to a homemade chopped salad, or simply serve alongside some of your family's favorite supper sides. <\/p> <\/div>
How do I know how much ham I'll need?<\/strong> For a boneless ham, estimate about \u00bd - \u00be of a pound per person. <\/p> <\/div>
Can I use a pre-glazed ham?<\/strong> You could, but we wouldn't recommend it, as pre-glazed hams already have a lot of added flavor to them, and you want to start with a clean slate to create your own delicious, brown-sugar-glazed cola flavor profile! As long as it's fully cooked, any pre-glazed ham will work.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n
