Ingredients

10 servings
Ham5–7 lbs bone-in
Honey0.75 cup
Brown sugar0.25 cup
Paprika1 tsp
Cloves12–16 whole
Ginger1 tbsp
Orange1 whole
Rosemary2 sprigs fresh

Method

1

Preheat oven to 325°F. Remove ham from refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow even baking.

2

Place ham cut-side down on a roasting pan rack. Cover tightly with foil.

3

Whisk together honey, mustard, brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, and ginger in a small bowl until smooth.

4

Bake covered for 1.5 hours (approximately 15 minutes per pound).

5

Remove foil, score the outer fat layer in a crosshatch pattern, and stud with cloves where lines intersect.

6

Brush glaze over ham. Return to oven and bake uncovered for 30–45 minutes, basting every 10–15 minutes, until exterior is caramelized and internal temperature reaches 140°F at the thickest point.

7

Let ham rest in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.

8

Arrange orange slices and fresh rosemary sprigs around ham for garnish. Serve warm or at room temperature.
