Equipment

  • small saucepan
  • Roasting Pan
  • pastry brush or bbq brush

Ingredients

  • 8 pounds spiral-cut ham 8-10 pounds
  • 1 cup pure maple syrup
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • In a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the glaze is well combined. Set aside.
  • Place the spiral-cut ham in a roasting pan, flat side down. If it came with a glaze packet, set it aside for later.
  • Brush a generous amount of the prepared glaze over the entire surface of the ham, making sure to get the glaze into the cuts between the slices. Use a basting brush for an even coating.
  • Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C). Baste the ham with the glaze every 30 minutes.
  • During the last 15-20 minutes of baking, remove the foil and brush the ham with additional glaze. This will give the ham a beautiful caramelized finish.
  • Once the ham reaches the desired temperature, remove it from the oven, cover it loosely with foil, and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. Serve the ham slices with the remaining glaze on the side.

Notes

Make sure that you allow the ham rest for at least 10 minutes before you remove slices.
