This recipe, from the Savannah Bee Company, features honeycomb tucked into slices of picnic ham. Purchase honeycomb at savannahbee.com, or look for it in jars of raw honey from specialty markets. If unavailable, drizzle about 1/4 cup honey over ham before serving.

Yield: Makes 10 to 12 servings

Ingredients

  • 1  (8- to 10-pound) bone-in, fully cooked, spiral-cut smoked ham half
  • 1  (11-ounce) honeycomb square
  • 1  tablespoon  orange zest (from 1 orange)
  • 1/2  cup  chopped dried cranberries
  • 1  tablespoon  chopped fresh rosemary
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Rolls or mini croissants

Preparation

Unwrap ham and place in a roasting pan. Gently separate the slices.

Drizzle 3 tablespoons honey from honeycomb or honey jar over the ham. Bake ham, uncovered, at 325° for 25 minutes.

Remove ham from oven, and transfer to a serving platter. Slice honeycomb into 1/4-inch-thick slices with a sharp knife dipped in hot water. Place slices of honeycomb between slices of ham. Sprinkle with orange zest, cranberries, rosemary, and pepper. Serve with rolls or mini croissants.
