Ingredients
  

  • 8 lb spiral ham
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and place the ham cut-side down in a roasting pan.
  2. Cover loosely with foil and bake for about 90 minutes.
  3. Whisk the brown sugar, honey, Dijon, and cloves into a glaze.
  4. Brush the ham generously with glaze and return it to the oven uncovered.
  5. Bake another 25 to 30 minutes, basting twice, until shiny and caramelized.
  6. Rest for 10 minutes before slicing and transporting.

Notes

Travel it whole and warm, then slice once you arrive so it stays juicy.
