How to Make Easy Marinated Ham
This easy marinated ham recipe is dripping in buttery deliciousness! It so easy you may want to make a double batch to freeze, for later! 
This marinated ham recipe will amp up your average ham sandwich. Marinated ham is buttery, savory and rich with flavor. We love how fast and easy this recipe is to make in the instant pot, too.
My aunt first made this recipe for a family holiday gathering. Then we'd make it for graduation parties and more get togethers. Then the guys started asking for it to make the list of field meals that we served throughout the summer!

Instant Pot Instructions
Loosely add 2 lbs. of shaved ham to your Instant Pot. We want to make sure the marinade can get through to each slice. Once the marinade has been brought to a boil, pour the ingredients over the ham. Close the lid and lock. Press the Meat button and increase time to 50 minutes. 
My most favorite way to serve this hot marinated ham is on fresh hot Rhodes Texas Rolls. I can bring them out of the freezer, set them on the stovetop for a couple of hours, or expedite the raising process by sticking them into the oven on 200 degrees for 1.5 hours. They always turn out perfectly fresh and soft. 
I always double my batch of the marinaded ham so I can have leftovers or freeze some. We love how they dress up a BLT. This time of year we have so many fresh veggies, that it's just the best treat! Our kids love eating just a pile of ham on a plate. But who could really blame them?
