Sweet ham is a traditional Christmas dish in our home. Well, not my home here in San Jose, CA, but my home in Manila. I remember my mom buying sweet ham or making them during Christmas. Take note though that Christmas in the Philippines isn’t just December 25. The Christmas season there starts in September and ends on the first week of January. And you’ll see celebrations and Christmas parties starting the first week of December.
Now I may not be with my mom right now but I can still enjoy my favorite Sweet Ham by doing this quick recipe using Cook’s portioned or sliced ham which you can purchase at any Lucky Supermarket.

Easy Sweet Ham Recipe
What you need:
- Cook’s portioned or sliced ham
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1oz water
Instructions:
- Place ham slices in the middle of a pan.
- In a separate bowl, mix pineapple juice and brown sugar.
- Pour mixture into the pan with ham.
- Add more pineapple juice, if necessary, to cover the ham slices.
- Turn the stove on high heat, stirring occasionally so as not to burn the ham until the mixture boils.
- Once mixture is boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 30-40 minutes.
- Drain and place ham in a plate.
- Set aside to cool.
- Serve and enjoy!
Note: If you want a glazed sweet ham, continue to heat the sugar and water mixture until it thickens. Use as glaze.

Perfect for snacks right after playing!
