Description

This tangy honey-glazed ham recipe combines honey, brown sugar, pineapple juice, and mustard for a delicious caramelized coating for your holiday ham.

Ingredients

1 (10 pound) fully-cooked, bone-in ham
1 1/4 cups packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup pineapple juice
1/3 cup honey, or more to taste
1/3 large orange
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice, or to taste

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place ham on a rack set in a roasting pan.
2 Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 2 hours.
3 Combine sugar, pineapple juice, and honey in a medium saucepan. Zest orange into the saucepan, then squeeze in juice. Add mustard and cloves; whisk over medium-high heat until boiling. Reduce heat and simmer until glaze thickens slightly, 5 to 10 minutes.
4 Adjust seasonings with lemon juice for tang, or more honey for sweetness. Set aside.
5 Remove ham from the oven after 2 hours. Brush with glaze. Bake for an additional 30 to 45 minutes, brushing ham with glaze every 10 minutes.
