Begin by preparing the glaze. In a medium bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk until all ingredients are well blended. This will give a smooth and thick glaze.
Add olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt to the glaze mixture. Mix again until everything is fully incorporated. Set aside this honey mustard glaze.
Place the ham steak on a clean cutting board. If the ham has a thick rind or excess fat, trim and discard any unwanted portions.
Brush both sides of the ham steak generously with the prepared honey mustard glaze, ensuring even coverage.
Preheat your grill to medium heat, approximately 350°F (175°C) if using a grill thermometer.
Once heated, oil the grill grates using a paper towel dipped in olive oil and tongs, to prevent the ham from sticking.
Place the glazed ham steak onto the grill. Cook for about 10 minutes on the first side, allowing the glaze to caramelize and seep into the ham.
Flip the ham steak using tongs and brush additional glaze on the already grilled side. Cook the opposite side for another 10 minutes or until fully heated and the grill marks are visible.
Transfer the grilled ham steak to a serving platter. Let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Serve the sugar-free grilled ham with the remaining glaze drizzled on top, if desired, and enjoy as a main course or as part of a larger meal spread.
