Total Time: 4 hrs 20 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 4 hrs

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• smoked ham
• 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 whole clove
• pineapple ring
• maraschino cherry
• 1 cup wine (slightly sweet)
• 1 cup ginger ale
• 1/2 cup honey

Recipe

• 1 preheat the oven to 250 or if pressed for time 300.
• 2 remove the rind from the ham and most of the fat if there in a lot. i always score the ham - cut it diagonally so you get the pretty diamonds. put a clove in the center of each diamond. place ham in a baking pan lined with aluminum foil - eliminates that nasty clean up later.
• 3 in a small bowl, combine mustard, brown sugar and honey. pour glaze over the ham and press into the cuts. using toothpicks, secure slices of pineapple to the ham with a cherry in the middle of each ring.
• 4 bake the ham from 4 hours to all day. baste every 30 minute with equal parts wine and ginger ale, or ginger ale only. later in the cooking process use the pan juices for basting.
• 5 remove from the oven and let ham stand for 30 minutes before carving. enjoy!
