I’ve been making these Hallelujah Ham Rolls for over 20 years. In fact, I have a very old post on the “original recipe” that got me hooked on them on this blog. But in the last few years I’ve adapted this recipe, and our family LOVES this new adapted version of Hallelujah Ham Rolls 2.0 much better!
First, you must know that this recipe for Hallelujah Hamm Rolls 2.0 is fail proof! You cannot mess it up. It’s been around for decades, and is the perfect thing to use with all your leftover ham during Christmas, NYE or even Easter! Kids absolutely love it, and it also freezes extremely well. We make it at least two times over the Winter break (and other times throughout the year) or when I know we’ll have a lot of kids over.
The Hallelujah Ham Rolls 2.0 has 2 new ingredients added to the recipe that puts it over the top.
- Chick-fil-A Sauce! This sauce sets it apart from the original recipe.
- Sweet Hawaiian Rolls. We use the big packs from Costco or just buy multiple packs from your grocery store.
The hickory smoke flavoring in the Chick-fil-A sauce along with the ham and Swiss cheese are the perfect combination, if you ask me and my family. Obviously, our family LOVES Chick-fil-A sauce (I mean, who doesn’t, right?) The original recipe that I have in the archives of this blog calls for Worcestershire sauce. I was out of it one day while making a batch of the Hallelujah Ham Rolls, grabbed the Chick-fil-A sauce for a substitution. Obviously, we loved it and that’s how our new Hallelujah Ham Rolls 2.0 recipe was created. Undoubtedly, you can omit or add to this recipe depending on what you have on hand or what your family needs.
