Clove-studded Ham with Spicy Beer Mustard and Maple Syrup Glaze
Easy-Lift and Marvelous Flavor
Servings 4
Equipment
- roasting pan with a rack
Ingredients
- 1 4-5 lb. bone-in, fully cooked ham cut-off tough, leather-like skin if it has it, most will not
- 25 cloves
Maple Syrup, Spicy Beer Mustard Glaze
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 Tb. Spicy Beer Mustard
- ¾ cup water
Instructions
- If a layer of fat surrounds the ham, score with hatch pattern, and press cloves into the squares, I like clove flavor so I placed cloves approximately 1 inch apart on the ham.
- If fat has been removed from your ham, stud it with cloves as you wish, no need to score the ham.
- Place the ham in a roasting pan with a rack and pour in 3/4 cup water and tent loosely with aluminum foil
- Oven temperature 325 Degrees
- Bake until internal temperature reaches 145 Degrees about 25-30 minutes/lb.
- When ham internal temp. reach 125, begin basting with the glaze and baste every 10 minutes. When internal temperature reaches 135 Degrees, remove the aluminum foil tent. Continue glazing the ham brushing all sides until internal temperature reaches 145 Degrees.
- Glaze will be all browned. Remove and allow to rest 20 minutes and carve and serve.
