Description

This delightful grilled dish pairs savory, salty ham with the natural sweetness of crisp apples. The secret lies in a quick-glaze of orange marmalade, butter, and a hint of ground ginger, which creates a sticky, aromatic coating as it heats. The combination of smoky grill flavors, sweet citrus, and warm spice makes for a unique and memorable meal. It is perfect for summer barbecues, picnics, or as a creative twist on a standard grilled sandwich. Simple to prepare and incredibly satisfying, this recipe brings a gourmet touch to your outdoor cooking with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel the apples and slice them into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
  2. In a 1-cup glass measuring cup, combine orange marmalade, butter, and ground ginger.
  3. Microwave the mixture on HIGH for 1 minute, or until melted and smooth, stirring once halfway through.
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-hot (350&# 194;°F (177ðC) (204ðC)to 400ðF).
  5. Arrange ham slices and apple slices on the grill grate.
  6. Cover the grill and cook for approximately 20 minutes, turning occasionally.
  7. Baste the ham and apples frequently with the warm marmalade mixture.
  8. Remove from grill when the ham is thoroughly heated and the apples are tender-crisp.

Note

Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp to prevent them from falling apart on the grill.

Keep a close eye on the ham and apples as the sugar in the marmalade can burn quickly over high heat.

For a smokier flavor, add wood chips to your charcoal or gas grill before cooking.

Serve immediately while warm, optionally with a side of coleslaw or green beans.
