Method
- Remove the ham from packaging and place it face up on a cutting board.
- Score the fat cap in a diagonal crosshatch pattern, cutting about one-quarter inch deep.
- Place the scored ham cut-side down in a roasting pan and add about one-half cup of water or broth.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, cloves, and black pepper.
- Whisk until the sugar dissolves and the glaze becomes smooth, about three minutes.
- Pour in the ham broth or chicken broth and add the butter, stirring to combine.
- Cover the ham tightly with a lid or aluminum foil and bake in a preheated 325-degree oven for one hour and 15 minutes.
- Remove the ham, uncover, and brush the glaze generously over the ham.
- Return the ham to the oven uncovered and bake for another 30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes.
- Check the internal temperature, it should read 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the ham rest for 10 minutes before carving.
Notes
Serve with seasonal sides to complement the ham's sweet-savory profile.
