Honey-Glazed Ham
Boiling the ham first makes it nice and moist
Prep Time: 15M
Cooking Time: 2H
Serves: makes 10-12 servings
Ingredients:
- 7lb ( 1.35kg) boneless ham butt
- 1 large onion, quartered
- 3 bay leaves
- 12 peppercorns
- 1/2 cup honey
- grated zest and juice of 1 orange
- about 20 whole cloves
- orange slices, to garnish
Directions:
- Place the ham in a pot and add cold water to cover. Add the onion, bay leaves, and peppercorns and bring a boil over medium heat. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 11/2 hours. Drain the ham and cool slightly.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Combine the honey, orange zest, and juice.
- Trim off the ham skin, leaving a layer of fat. Cut crisscrosses in the fat and push in the cloves. Line a roasting pan with foil. Place the ham on a rack in the pan and pour in 1 cup water. Brush the ham with half of the honey mixture.
- Bake the ham for 10 minutes. Baste with the remaining honey mixture. Bake another 10 minutes or until glazed. Let stand for 20 minutes. Garnish with orange slices.
