Ingredients
  

  • 1 10 pound fully-cooked, bone-in ham
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
  2. Remove all packaging from the ham, including any plastic disc covering the bone.
  3. Place ham on a rack set in a large roasting pan, flat side down.
  4. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern about 1/4-inch deep. This helps the glaze penetrate the meat.
  5. Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of the roasting pan and cover the ham tightly with aluminum foil.
  6. Bake the ham for 1 hour and 30 minutes (about 9-10 minutes per pound).
  7. While ham is baking, prepare the glaze. In a medium saucepan, combine honey, maple syrup, brown sugar, pineapple juice, Dijon mustard, ground cloves, cinnamon, and apple cider vinegar.
  8. Bring the glaze mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until sugar dissolves and mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.
  9. After the initial baking time, remove the ham from the oven and increase the temperature to 400°F (205°C).
  10. Carefully remove the foil and brush half of the glaze over the entire surface of the ham, working it into the scored cuts.
  11. Return the ham to the oven, uncovered, and bake for 15 minutes.
  12. Brush the ham with the remaining glaze and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes until the glaze is caramelized and the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C).
  13. Remove from the oven and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
  14. Transfer to a serving platter and spoon any glaze from the bottom of the pan over the sliced ham.
