Preparation time20’
Cooking time180’
Level of difficultyEasy
2 kg (or more) of gammon
To boil the gammon:
1 orange, sliced
2 bay leaves
10 grains of pepper
2 cinnamon sticks
10 cloves
To bake the gammon in the oven:
60 gr. soft brown sugar
50 gr. honey
330 ml beer
The juice of 1 orange
Pineapple canned juice
Cloves to "nail" the pineapple to the gum
6 slices of canned pineapple
1. Put the gammon in a large deep pot and cover with water.
2. Add the orange slices, the 2 bay leaves, the 10 peppercorns, the 2 cinnamon sticks, the 10 cloves and let them boil.
3. Lower the heat, cover the pot and simmer for 2 hours (you estimate 30 minutes for every 500gr of its weight).
4. Take the gammon out of the pot, remove its net and put it in a pan. With a knife we remove its skin, leaving a layer of thickness on its surface.
5. Then carve the thickness with the tip of the knife into diamonds (diagonally in two directions)
6. Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Place the gammon in a medium baking dish. Spread the gammon with the brown sugar, the honey and pour over the beer, the orange juice and the pineapple juice. Nail the pineapple slices with the cloves, to cover the entire upper surface of the gammon.
7. Bake the gammon in the oven for about 1 hour, smearing it every now and then with the icing from the pan, until it is well browned.
