Grilled Ham Steaks

4 ham steaks
Glaze
¼ cup pineapple juice
1 tablespoon ketchup or barbecue sauce
1 teaspoon (smooth) mixed mustard
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon maple syrup or brown sugar


Mix the marinade ingredients. Heat until boiling, stirring until glaze is thick and clear. Snip the edges of each steak in 4-6 places, so they will not curl up as they cook. Pour glaze over ham steaks in an unpunctured plastic bag, or in a shallow dish. Make sure all the ham surfaces are coated. Leave for at least 15 minutes.
Grill over high heat on a hot plate or lightly oiled grilling rack until steaks are hot, and lightly browned on both sides, about 3-5 minutes per side. Do not overcook.
Grill canned pineapple rings to serve with each steak, if desired. Place on oiled heated plate or in wire basket as they break easily when turned.
