Ingredients
Scale
- 1 whole double-smoked ham (about 8–10 pounds)
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
- In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground cloves to create a glaze.
- Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern.
- Brush the glaze generously over the ham.
- Place the ham in a roasting pan and cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 1.5 to 2 hours, basting every 30 minutes with the remaining glaze.
- Remove the foil for the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow the glaze to caramelize.
- Once done, let the ham rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a more intense flavor, consider using a wood smoker for additional smoking after baking.
- Leftover ham can be used in sandwiches, salads, or soups.
- Adjust the sweetness of the glaze according to your preference.
