How to Broil Ham
Craving ham but don’t want all the leftovers? Broiling a ham steak is the perfect solution. Since a steak is just a thick slice cut from the ham, it will have a similar flavor and texture. Broiling allows the ham to brown on the outside, for maximum flavor, and because steaks are typically about ½-inch thick, this method will also cook the meat through. It’s important to note, steaks are typically sold raw, so must be cooked to a temperature of 145°F. Here’s how to broil ham steak. Set oven to broil and line broiler pan with aluminum foil, for easy cleanup. Place ham steak on a wire rack over broiler pan. Position the pan so the top of the ham is 4 to 5 inches from heat.
