Recipe View 15 mins Let the ham rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful ham. (15 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider using a darker beer like a stout or porter.
If you don't have pineapple rings, crushed pineapple can be used instead. Simply spread it over the ham before baking.
To achieve a beautiful glaze, remove the lid or foil during the last hour of cooking and baste the ham with the pan juices every 15-20 minutes.
Leftover ham is excellent in sandwiches, omelets, or added to soups and stews.
