Baked Ham with Honey Glaze

Ingredients

  • 15 pound fully cooked smoked ham
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • Whole cloves

Directions

  1. Remove rack from roaster oven. Pour 2 cups of water into the insert pan, put the roaster cover on and preheat roaster oven to 325°F.
  2. Trim thick part of fat off of ham down to 1/4-inch. Score remaining layer of fat into diamond design; this will help hold the glaze.  Insert whole cloves into each diamond.
  3. Place ham on rack then place in roaster and cover. Bake for 1 hour.
  4. While ham is cooking combine remaining ingredients to make glaze.
  5. Remove cover and spoon half of glaze over ham. Replace cover and bake 1 more hour.
  6. Remove cover and spoon remaining glaze over ham. Replace cover.  Bake for 10 minutes to set glaze.  Internal temperature of ham should be at least 140°F.

Serves: 15-20
