Grandma's Corn Pudding

Grandma's corn pudding is comfort food at its best. This creamy corn casserole is easy to make with both whole kernel and creamstyle corn, resulting in a custardy pudding that will be a welcome addition to your holiday table.

Ingredients

• 5 large eggs • ⅓ cup butter, melted and slightly cooled • ¼ cup white sugar • ½ cup milk • ¼ cup cornstarch • 1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained • 2 (14.75 ounce) cans cream-style corn

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish. • Whisk eggs lightly in a large bowl. Add milk, melted butter, sugar, and cornstarch; whisk until well combined. Stir in drained corn and cream-style corn until fully blended. Pour mixture into the prepared casserole dish. • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 1 hour.

Cinnamon Toasty Shooter

Ingredients • 1 1/2 ounces amaretto liqueur • 1/2 ounce cinnamon schnapps

Tangy Honey-Glazed Ham

Honey-glazed ham is perfect for holiday dinners or other special occasions. An easy, homemade glaze is brushed onto the ham during the last half hour of baking, adding incredible flavor and creating a sweet, sticky, caramelized coating your guests will love. I came up with the glaze for this ham using ingredients on hand and it's the best I've ever tasted.

Ingredients

• 1 (10 pound) fully-cooked, bone-in ham • 1 ¼ cups packed dark brown sugar • ⅓ cup pineapple juice • ⅓ cup honey, or more to taste • ⅓ large orange • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves • 1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice, or to taste (Optional)

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place ham in a roasting pan. • Bake ham, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 2 hours. • While the ham is baking, combine brown sugar, pineapple juice, and 1/3 cup honey in a saucepan. Zest orange into the saucepan, then squeeze in the juice. Add Dijon mustard and ground cloves; whisk mixture over medium-high heat as it comes to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until glaze thickens slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. • Taste glaze and adjust seasonings. Add lemon juice for more tang, or honey to make it sweeter. Set aside. • Remove ham from the oven after it has baked for 2 hours.

Brush with glaze. Bake for an additional 30 to 45 minutes, brushing ham with glaze every 10 minutes.

Tips

• Add leftover glaze to the pan drippings along with a little flour or cornstarch to make a nice sauce to accompany the meat.

Use the ham bone and any trimmings to make soup afterward.

Merry Christmas from the RTR Family

BECAUSE EVERYONE NEEDS A GOOD LAUGH NOW AND THEN...

Twas the Night Before Christmas (For Bikers)

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the pad, There was nada happenin’, now thats pretty bad. The woodstove was hung up in that stocking routine, In hopes that the Fat Boy would soon make the scene.

With our stomachs packed with tacos and beer, My girl and I crashed on the couch for some cheer. When out in the yard there arose such a racket, I ran for the door and pulled on my jacket.

I saw a large bro’ on a ’56 Pan Wearin’ black leathers, a cap, and boots (cool biker, man). He hauled up the bars on that bikeful of sacks, And that Pan hit the roof like it was running on tracks.

I couldn’t help gawking, the old guy had class. But I had to go in — I was freezing my ass. Down through the stovepipe he fell with a crash, And out of the stove he came dragging his stash.

With a smile and some glee he passed out the loot, A new jacket for her and some parts for my scoot. He patted her fanny and shook my right hand, Spun on his heel and up the stovepipe he ran.

From up on the roof came a great deal of thunder, As that massive V-twin ripped the silence asunder. With beard in the wind, he roared off in the night, Shouting, “Have a cool Yule, and to all a good ride!”
