Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 8 pound fully cooked bone-in spiral ham (make sure it's not already glazed)
- 15 whole cloves
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F. Place a baking rack in a shallow pan. Coat with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place ham cut side down on the rack. Distribute the cloves all around the ham, in between the spirals.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, brown sugar, orange juice, and garlic powder; Drizzle 1/3 of the glaze over the ham, spreading evenly. Cover with foil.
- Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 140 (between 1 & 1/2 to 2 hours depending on how many pounds your ham is.)
- Drizzle the glaze 2-3 more times during the cooking process, spacing as evenly as you can, with the final drizzle during the last 20 minutes without the foil.
- Let ham rest for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy with any reserved sauce or pan drippings.NOTE: for more information about choosing the right ham and how much ham you should purchase, please refer to the article.
