Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Ham
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Place the ham on a roasting rack in a large roasting pan, cut side down.

Make the Glaze
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground cloves, and black pepper. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
- 3
Score the Ham
Using a sharp knife, score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, making shallow cuts. This allows the glaze to penetrate the meat.
