Glaze for ham

[Boardtowndawg]

I am smoking two spiral cut hams for Christmas this year for the family. I was trying to decide on what to use as a glaze. I have read about several glazes using apple jelly as a base. I have a bottle of Captain Rodneys I was thinking about using as a base but I was wondering what flavors to put with it. Anyone got any ideas?

There has got to be some really good glaze recipes here on the forums.
I would try a search and go from there.

I actually had a ham that used Coke as the base for the glaze. Quite good.

I used a Sarsaparilla baste on a 12# ham at Easter. Doing it for Xmas also we liked it so much
1½ cup pineapple juice
5 tablespoons sarsaparilla
4 tablespoons brown sugar
6 tablespoons butter

Combine the pineapple juice, sarsaparilla, sugar, and butter water in a small saucepan. Heat over med-high heat, stirring frequently until the sugar is dissolved.
Place the ham in a shallow roasting pan. Cover with the pineapple juice mixture, and then smoke/bake until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F, 3-3½ hours, basting with the pineapple mixture about every 30 minutes or so.

Last one I did, used Jeff’s maple/rub recipe, and family loved it.

My families favorite glaze is either Jeff's Sauce or Sweet Baby Rays original, cut 50:50 with root beer.
