Ingredients
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/2 cup peach nectar
- 4 to 5 chipotles, minced
- 5 pound spiral cut smoked ham
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and honey. Set aside.
In another small bowl, mix together the orange juice, peach nectar and chipotles.
Arrange the ham, cut end down, in a large baking dish. Pour a few tablespoons of the juice mixture over the ham and in between the layers. Bake for 30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes with the remaining juice mixture.
Remove the ham from the oven. Reserve about 1 1/2 cups of cooked juice from baking dish. Brush the honey mixture on the ham and return to the oven to bake for an additional hour until a crust forms and the ham begins to caramelize. Remove from the oven to a serving platter and serve with the reserved baking juice.

I made this ham for Christmas 2010 and I will do it this year for 2011. I rinsed my chipotles well and removed the seeds and minced them. The pepper goes well with the sweetness. I will use mango-orange juice instead of peach nectar. Day-after ham is the best, saving the hambone and drippings for greens on New Year's Eve. Thanks Big Daddy.

Best ever. I've always used brown sugar and pineapple juice on just a regular ham. Since watching Aaron I love the brown sugar, honey mix with the spiral ham. The only thing I do different is I use an upstate apple cider from an apple farm named Beak & Skiff. WONDERFUL!!!!!!
