Amana Lil' Smoked Bone-In Ham

Ingredients

  • 1 Amana Lil’ Smoked Bone-In Ham (6-8 pounds)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Whole cloves (optional, for garnishing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
  2. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, making shallow cuts about 1 inch apart.
  3. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, and black pepper. Stir until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Place the ham in a roasting pan and pour the glaze over it, ensuring it seeps into the cuts.
  5. Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes per pound, or until heated through (an internal temperature of 140°F / 60°C).
  6. During the last 30 minutes of baking, remove the foil to allow the glaze to caramelize and develop a beautiful golden-brown crust. If desired, stud the ham with whole cloves for added flavor and presentation.
  7. Once cooked, remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute for optimal moisture and flavor.

Serve the Amana Lil’ Smoked Bone-In Ham with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a refreshing salad. Enjoy the unforgettable taste and aroma that will leave your guests asking for seconds!
