These Sweet Teriyaki Grilled Ham Steaks are perfect for when you are craving cooked ham but don’t want to purchase a huge spiral ham. These steaks are boneless, which is also great for holidays when you are only cooking for small families. You can make these with leftovers from a big cooked ham, or purchase actual pre-sliced ham steaks, which is what we did. We got these gigantic ones from Costco, they were Kirkland brand and came with three individually packaged, thick ham steaks. Before purchasing, you can look at other locations to get the best price.
Ingredients
The sweet teriyaki glaze is tangy and delicious and super easy to make. You will love the little pieces of pineapple mixed in to every bite. These pre-cooked ham steaks cook quickly.

Ham steaks – You can find these at a grocery store. These slices of ham are thiner, pre-cooked, and stored in plastic wrap. Sometimes there is one steak per bag. Teriyaki sauce – Always adds in intense flavor of sweet and savory. However, soy sauce will also work too! Brown sugar – Add in the sweetness with the teriyaki sauce whenever these two ingredients are together. They are the perfect combination! Pineapple – Crushed pineapple in a can gives the steaks a little texture, plus lots of flavor from the pineapple juice. You can either drain the pineapple juice or add a little to the mixture. Corn starch – This is the thickener for the sauce. Dijon mustard or apple cider vinegar – Both optional, but does add more flavoring when combined.
Pan-Fried Ham Steaks
Another way to cook these steaks is cooking on the stove top in a frying pan. You can melt butter in the pan and place the pre-cooked steaks on medium heat, flipping it after a few minutes on each side. This is a great source of protein!
