Sweet Glazed Ham
Ingredients
  • 1 (8 pound) bone-in shank ham
  • 4 cups water, or as needed
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons liquid smoke flavoring
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 pinch ground cloves
Instructions
1
First, preheat the oven to a moderate temperature of 275 degrees Fahrenheit (or equivalently, 135 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, place the ham in a suitable roasting dish and fill it with enough water to reach a depth of 2 inches.
3
After that, cover the roasting pan with a lid designed to fit snugly.
4
Then, bake the ham in the preheated oven for a prolonged period of 6 to 8 hours, allowing it to cook throughout the day or night.
5
Once done, remove the ham from the oven and carefully pour off any excess liquid that has accumulated at the bottom of the pan.
6
Next, take out the ham from the roasting pan and carefully remove any excess fat that may be attached to it.
7
After that, place the ham back into the roasting pan and skim off any excess fat from the surface of the remaining liquid.
8
Now, mix together 1 cup of the saved liquid with honey, brown sugar, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, and cloves in a small bowl.
9
Then, pour this mixture over the ham, cover it again with the lid, and return it to the oven.
10
Finally, bake for an additional 30 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven.
11
Before serving, let the ham rest for 10 minutes to allow it to absorb all the flavors.
