Original Brown Sugar Ham Glaze

Original Brown Sugar Ham Glaze: The Classic Kentucky Finish

There is a reason some traditions never change. Our Original Brown Sugar Ham Glaze is the very same recipe that has graced Bluegrass holiday tables for generations. It is the gold standard for anyone looking to achieve that iconic, crackling, sweet-and-savory crust on a Broadbent Country Ham.

Crafted to highlight—not hide—the deep hickory smoke of our heritage meats, this glaze melts into the spiral slices, creating a rich mahogany finish and a flavor profile that tastes like home.

How to Use the Original Brown Sugar Glaze

This isn't just a topping; it’s a transformation. Here is how to get the most out of every jar:

• The Holiday Masterpiece: During the last 20 minutes of heating your Broadbent Spiral Ham, remove the foil and brush a generous layer of glaze over the top and between the slices. Turn the oven up to 400°F for the final 10 minutes to "fire" the glaze into a shimmering, sweet crust.

• The Better Bacon: Brush a light coating over Broadbent Thick-Cut Bacon before oven-baking. The sugar caramelizes with the bacon fat for the ultimate "Millionaire’s Bacon" experience.

• Glazed Pork Chops: Sear your pork chops in a cast-iron skillet, then finish them with a dollop of Brown Sugar Glaze. The residual heat creates a pan-sauce that pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes or grits.

• Sweet Potato Soul: Stir a few tablespoons into mashed sweet potatoes or drizzle over roasted root vegetables for a classic Southern side dish.

Why It’s a Broadbent Staple
