Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ham

    Remove the ham from the packaging and place it in a large roasting pan. If the ham has a thick layer of fat, score it in a diamond pattern.

  3. 3

    Mix Glaze Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground cloves, ground black pepper, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well until combined.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Apply the Glaze

    Brush half of the glaze mixture over the surface of the ham, ensuring it gets into the scored cuts.

  2. 5

    Roast the Ham

    Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for about 15-18 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C).

  3. 6

    Glaze the Ham Again

    Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham to create a caramelized crust.

Serving

  1. 7

    Rest and Slice

    Once the ham reaches the desired temperature, remove it from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Slice the ham and serve it warm. Enjoy your delicious glazed ham!
