Spiced Brown Sugar Glazed Ham

Ham is a go-to family dinner staple. And don't forget to save the bone for pea soup! You'll find that recipe at the end of this post.

Ingredients:

3.5 kg (7.7 lb) bone-in fully cooked ham

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup orange juice

1 tbsp honey

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp dijon mustard

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp allspice

First let the ham come to room temperature on the counter, about 1 hour. Place it on two pieces of foil, large enough to completely enclose the ham. Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and heat to dissolve the sugar. Then simmer a few minutes until it thickens slightly. Take 1/3 of the glaze and pour or brush all over the ham, Then wrap tightly in the foil.

Place in a 13 X 9" baking pan and into a 325°F oven for 15 minutes per pound or until internal temperature reads 100-110°F. Remove from oven and up the temperature to 400°F. Unwrap and brush another 1/3 of the glaze onto the ham. Return to the oven, unwrapped, another 15-20 minutes or until the glaze starts to caramelize.

Next, remove from oven and add the remaining glaze. Loosely tent with foil and let rest 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes it's ready to slice!
