Preparation and Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Ham
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Place the bone-in ham in a large roasting pan, cut side down.
- 2
Make the Glaze
In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground cloves, and pineapple juice. Mix until smooth.
- 3
Apply the Glaze
Brush the glaze generously over the surface of the ham, ensuring to cover all areas. Reserve some glaze for basting later.
- 4
Roast the Ham
Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil to prevent it from drying out. Roast in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes per pound (about 33 minutes per kilogram).
- 5
Baste the Ham
Every 30 minutes, remove the foil and baste the ham with the reserved glaze to keep it moist and flavorful.
- 6
Finish and Rest
During the last 30 minutes of cooking, remove the foil to allow the glaze to caramelize. Once done, remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
