Orange Molasses Ham Glaze

I first experienced this at Goudy Commons @ Willamette University. It was offered as part of their breakfast menu. ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! Especially when married with hickory smoked ham! And best of all...it's quick and simple to make with delicious results.

Ingredients:1.5 cups molasses,1.5 cups orange juice (non-pulp type),1 TBL garlic powder, up to 1/2 TBL allspice. (optional--ceyanne pepper for heat)

Preparation: In a 2qt. sauce pan, add all ingredients,over medium heat, stir and reduce by 1/2 volume. Allow glaze/baste to cool. While cooking or warming up ham, brush on every 20-30 minutes, until ham is done. Makes approximately 3/4 cup of baste/glaze. For a real glaze, heat up molasses mixture and paint on ham after it's come off the grill. Allow to cool on the ham. YUMMY!

My thanks to my friends at Bon Appetite @ Willamette University for sharing this recipe with me! You guys are THE BEST!
