This was another recipe to use some of the left over pears. I had to laugh because the recipe says to use 3/4 cup ground allspice! Wow! That would be around 4 jars!! So I adjusted to 3/4 teaspoon instead and it turned out great. I also substituted an ugly old cookie sheet for the serving platter. haha! :)
Grilled Pears & Ham with Maple Glaze
6 Tbsp maple syrup
1/4 C butter
2 Tbsp yellow mustard
3/4 tsp ground allspice
2 large, ripe Bartlett pears, cored and sliced 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick
4-6 individual ham steaks (or 2 large ones)
In a small saucepan, combine syrup, butter, mustard and allspice; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and let cook for 5 minutes.
Cook ham steaks over medium coals and grill for 5 minutes on each side, brushing each side with glaze. Brush pears with glaze. When you turn the ham to cook the second side, add the pears to the grill and cook about 4 minutes, turning once. Ham and pears should be heated through and ham should be slightly browned.
Place ham on serving platter, top with pears and drizzle glaze over the top. Serve immediately.
*Pork chops may be substituted for the ham. Increase grilling time to 10-12 minutes per side.
