Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.

I am due to cook a Gammon joint at the weekend.
Does anyone have any idea about what I can coat it with before cooking that doesn't include Sugar of any sort.
Thanks in advance.

I never put anything on meat other than a light coating of fat or oil if it seems rather lean. Modern meat has far less flavour than half a century ago, of course, as the animals have a restricted diet, but I still don't see the logic of putting sugar on it.

I do it like @Rachox but I use Diet Coke, or if I roast it - half way through I brush it with a thin layer of mustard, mix some rapeseed oil with Chinese 5 spice and a little bit of ground cloves and brush that on

If you like the taste, you could score it, stud it with cloves, add your fat of choice, and roast it that way.
