Super Easy Baked Ham
Seriously, we’re talking easy here, with undisputed delicious results. Of course the end product will depend heavily on the quality of ham you start with. Make sure to shop around and ask your local butcher for advice. You should stay away from heavily salted hams that have lots of fat.
INGREDIENTS
One Smoked Fully Cooked Ham (6 to 8 Pounds)
8 Ounces Apricot Preserves
3/4 Cup Honey
1/3 Cup Dijon Mustard
1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
1/2 Cup Orange Juice
1/2 Teaspoon Ground Cloves
1/2 Teaspoon Ground Ginger
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil. Place ham on top of the roasting rack. If you don’t have a roasting rack then just place directly on the foil. In a medium-size bowl combine apricot preserves, honey, mustard, soy sauce, orange juice, cloves, and ginger. Generously, brush ham with glaze and place in oven. Bake for 1 1/4 hours, basting every 30 minutes. Insert meat thermometer into center of ham. It should read 140 degrees. Remove from oven and transfer to carving board. Let stand for 15 minutes before carving. Transfer to serving platter. About 4 servings per pound.
