'I'm a cook - my sweet and juicy Thanksgiving Day ham recipe tastes so good’
A cook has shared how to make a mouthwatering Thanksgiving Day ham that's sweet and far from dry.
Juicy Thanksgiving Day ham is perfect when paired with foods like mac and cheese and sweet potatoes on the holiday. Connecticut-based cook Damaris (@damariskitchen) shared a special ham recipe with her large TikTok following in time for the festivities, and her recipe seems to be a hit with fans.
Before setting out to help viewers make a sweet and juicy holiday ham in a video, Damaris said her ham is “nothing fancy” but it “tastes so good”. To replicate her recipe, get started with your glaze.
Add 13 ounces of strawberry preserves, 10 ounces of cherries with the liquid, a tablespoon of cinnamon, a 20-ounce can of pineapple with the juice, and a third of a cup of brown sugar to a pot. Mix it well and cook it for five minutes until it gets nice and gooey.
While it cooks, grab your ham and remove some of the fat to your liking.

People left comments on Damaris’s video, sharing their love for Thanksgiving day ham and singing praises of the recipe.
