Notes
Recipe Tips
Variations Ideas
- Grill temperature. Watch the grill closely to make sure that it doesn't get too hot and burn the slice of ham steak. You don't want any flare ups that might scorch the steaks.
- Flip the ham. Make sure to flip the ham steaks half way through the cooking process and baste.
- Do not overcook. Cooking ham does not take very long on the grill. You do not want to overcook as it will become tough.
- Buy bone in ham. Ham steaks that include the bone are often the most flavorful. They are also really tender.
- Double the recipe. This is the perfect size for a smaller family. Larger families might consider grilling 2 ham steaks.
- Maple Syrup. You can use maple syrup instead of honey in this recipe if you prefer.
- Pineapple. Top the ham slices with pineapple rings or bites while grilling. The flavor combination is delicious.
- Cayenne Pepper. For a hint of spice, top with about 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.
- Apple Cider Vinegar - Add in a 1/2 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to balance out the flavors.
