Description

This dish is made using lightly smoked pork ham. Warning: diet cola is not suitable, only the regular kind! For the glaze, you will need mustard powder, brown sugar, and molasses. If the ham is very salty, it is better to prepare it this way: soak it in cold water, bring to a boil, and drain.

Ingredients

Pork Blood - 70.5 oz
Coca-Cola - 67 fl oz
Onion - 1 piece
Mustard Greens - 2 teaspoons
Sugar - 2 tablespoons
Ground clove - 1.8 oz
Light Molasses - 1 tablespoon

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Chop the onion. Place the ham in a deep skillet skin side down, add the onion, pour in the Coca-Cola, and bring to a boil.

Step 2

Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 2.5 hours. If the ham is from the refrigerator, increase the cooking time by 15 minutes.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 464°F. Remove the ham from the skillet. Remove the skin, and score the fat diagonally to create a grid pattern. Insert cloves into the intersections of the cuts, brush the surface with molasses, and sprinkle with sugar and mustard.
