Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Glaze
In a saucepan, mix the brown sugar, honey, black pepper, cloves, and water. Heat over medium until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well combined, then set aside.
- 2
Prepare the Ham
Score the surface of the country ham in a diamond pattern, being careful not to cut too deeply. This will allow the glaze to penetrate the meat.
- 3
Glaze the Ham
Brush the glaze generously over the surface of the ham, ensuring it gets into the scored areas.
- 4
Cook the Ham
Place the ham in a roasting pan and cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Roast in a preheated oven at 325°F (165°C) for about 1.5 hours, basting periodically with the glaze.
- 5
Slice and Serve
Once the ham is heated through and caramelized, remove it from the oven. Let it rest for 15 minutes, then slice and serve.
