Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Prepare the Ham
Remove the Lady Edison Country Ham from the packaging and place it in a large roasting pan, cut side facing up.
Score the Ham
Using a sharp knife, score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, making shallow cuts.
Make the Glaze
In a bowl, combine brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, cloves, and black pepper to form a glaze.
Apply the Glaze
Brush the glaze generously over the ham, making sure to get it into the scored cuts.
Add Water
Pour water into the bottom of the roasting pan to keep the ham moist during cooking.
Bake the Ham
Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until heated through, basting occasionally with the pan juices.
Finish and Serve
Remove the foil in the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow the glaze to caramelize. Once cooked, let the ham rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
