Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 7 pounds traditional bone-in ham
Glaze Ingredients
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 8 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Set the ham out at room temperature 1 hour before cook time to take the chill off.
  2. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  3. Place the ham on a 9×13 casserole dish, cut side down. Add 1/4 inch of water to the baking dish.
Cooking
  1. Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake according to package directions, until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F, about 15 minutes per pound (about 1 hour 45 minutes total cook time).
  2. In a medium pot over medium-high heat, combine all of the glaze ingredients. Cook on medium heat until it simmers and the sugar is melted. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Halfway through the ham cook time (about 45-60 minutes into cook time), remove the aluminum foil and pour half of the glaze over the ham.
  4. Use a basting brush to spread the glaze over the ham. Repeat every 15-20 minutes until the ham is cooked through.
  5. Remove ham from oven, let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Leftovers can be used in sandwiches, soups, or salads. Store leftover ham in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
