Ingredients:
– 4 ham slices, about 1/2 inch thick
– 1 cup barbecue sauce
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375-400°F (190-200°C).
2. In a small bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, honey, soy sauce, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a flavorful marinade for the ham slices.
3. Place the ham slices in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour half of the marinade over the ham slices, making sure they are coated evenly. Reserve the other half of the marinade for basting later.
4. Allow the ham slices to marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or for even more flavor, marinate them in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours. Remember to turn the slices occasionally to ensure they are evenly coated.
5. Once the ham slices have marinated, remove them from the dish or bag and discard any excess marinade.
6. Place the ham slices on the preheated grill and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until they are heated through and have beautiful grill marks. Baste the slices with the reserved marinade while grilling to add an extra layer of flavor.
7. Once the ham slices are cooked to your desired level of char and caramelization, remove them from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
8. Garnish the Barbecued Ham Slices with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
9. Serve the ham slices hot, alongside your favorite sides like grilled vegetables, cornbread, or a fresh green salad. Enjoy the delicious combination of smoky barbecue flavors and tender ham in every bite!
