Step 1
Pour the cans of pineapple and their juice into the pot.
Step 2
Add the cloves and mustard. Stir well.
Step 3
Place the ham on a trivet (I like to use a silicone steamer with handles) in the pot with the fat side up. If it doesn't fit well, cut off a piece and fit it into the pot along side the larger piece (you may need to reduce the cook time from the original weight as the ham will be smaller after cutting off a piece.).Make sure the ham is below the level of the pot so the lid goes on without obstruction. I can fit a 8-9 lb ham in my 8 quart Instant Pot, and a 6-7 lb ham in my 6 qt.
Step 4
Pour the honey over the ham.
Step 5
Place the lid on the Instant Pot and set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.
Step 6
Press the Pressure Cook button (or Manual) and then the + or - button to choose the cook time in minutes.
Step 7
Your ham's cook time will depend on the weight/thickness. Use High pressure. This is for a bone-in UNCUT ham.4-5 pounds - 12 minutes plus 25 minutes Natural Release6-7 pounds - 17 minutes plus 25 minutes Natural Release8-9 pounds - 22 minutes plus 25 minutes Natural Release(For a spiral cut ham, only cook 3 minutes with a 15 minute NPR).
Step 8
When cooking cycle has ended, let the pot naturally release pressure for 25 minutes. Then manually release the remaining pressure by turning the steam release knob to Venting.
Step 9
When the pin in the lid drops, open the lid and take the temperature of the ham. It should read 100°-115° F which is fine for a fully cooked ham. Remember, you are just reheating it.If the ham is below 85° F, place the lid back on and pressure cook it for another 3 minutes and 10 minutes Natural Release.
Step 10
Carefully remove the ham to a baking sheet.
Step 11
Ladle the liquid from the pot to a fat separator (straining out the pineapple chunks) and discard the extra fat. Then add the defatted liquid and pineapple chunks back into the pot.
Step 12
Turn on the Sauté setting (Low or Less temperature).
Step 13
Mix in half of the brown sugar. Taste and adjust sugar, mustard, or cloves, if desired.
Step 14
Mix the corn starch and reserved pineapple juice together to make a slurry. Add the slurry to the simmering liquid and stir until it is thickened. Then turn off the pot.
Step 15
Turn on the broiler to 425°.
Step 16
Pour some of the glaze over the ham and place the ham under the broiler to caramelize for a few minutes. Check it often to make sure it doesn't burn!
Step 17
Remove ham from oven to a serving platter and serve. Serve the remaining glaze as a gravy.
