Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). This ensures an even cook for the ham.
Prepare the Ham
Remove the ham from packaging and place it cut-side down in a large roasting pan.
Making the Glaze
Combine Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, ground cloves, and ground cinnamon. Mix well.
Heat the Glaze
Add the water to the glaze mixture and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
Cooking the Ham
Apply the Glaze
Brush half of the glaze over the ham, making sure to get it into the scored areas for maximum flavor.
Bake the Ham
Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes per pound.
Finishing Touches
Check for Doneness
The ham is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C).
Rest and Serve
Let the ham rest for 20 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a moist ham.
