Sunday Night Dinner - Dad's Peameal Roast

My dad has been telling me about this great peameal roast he makes, but I've never been home to try it myself. Knowing how much Brent loves ham, I thought I would try my hand at it for dinner tonight. So I called my dad, and got him to talk me through his recipe. Oh, and really, this must be served with Scalloped Potatoes. I used Canadian Living's recipe, it's not posted online, so maybe I'll post it later this week.

Dad's Peameal Roast
- 1 peameal roast (found in the ham section of the grocery store)
- 2 tbsp dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 6-10 clovesPreheat oven to 350F. Line small pan with tin foil. Place roast on rack on pan. Mix mustard, maple syrup and thyme together. Drizzle over ham, brushing to distribute. Save leftover sauce to brush on halfway through cooking. Place several cloves in ham.


Roast for about 1.5 hours. You can put this in at the same time as the potatoes. Halfway through brush with more sauce. Roast is ready when thermometer reads 170F. Let rest covered with foil for 10 minutes. This was a great meal for ham lovers, when there are only 2 or 4 people.
