Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Place the 8-pound spiral-cut ham flat side down in a large roasting pan.
  2. Step 2: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup honey, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/2 cup water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Brush the honey glaze generously over the entire surface of the ham, making sure it seeps between the spiral slices.
  4. Step 4: Cover the roasting pan loosely with aluminum foil and bake the ham for 1 hour and 30 minutes, basting with the glaze every 20 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking to allow the glaze to caramelize into a sticky crust. Let the ham rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
