Photo: Baked Ham with Brown Sugar Honey Glaze Recipe
Ingredients
- 18 to 20-pound smoked ham, water added, ham hock removed
- One 16-ounce box light brown sugar
- 1 cup (8-ounce jar) clover honey
Directions
Adjust the oven racks to accommodate a large covered roasting pan. Fit the pan with a shallow rack. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Unwrap the ham and rinse it in cold water. Place it on the rack in the roasting pan. Cover the pan with the lid and bake for half the estimated cooking time (Total cooking time is about 20 minutes per pound.) Halfway through the estimated cooking time, add the sugar and honey to a saucepan, cooking over medium heat until smooth and sugar is dissolved. Pour the mixture over the ham and continue baking the ham, basting occasionally with the drippings in the roaster.
Check for doneness at the end of the estimated cooking time by inserting a meat thermometer at a meaty point (not into fat or touching the bone). It should register 160 degrees F.
Allow the ham to stand for 15 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to set.

Trisha, Thank you so much for this Amazing Easy to Do Recipe! I am a single girl who has a family full of cooks. They are look at me *being single* as if I am the girl who cannot cook! This recipe proved them wrong. And with almost 0 prep work, I was able to spend quality time with my grandmother! Thank you!

Easy Easy Easy. Very impressive presentation !!! I basted every 1/2 hour and made sure ham was completely covered while cooking. Family and guests loved it. I added a cup of orange juice toward the end of cooking to increase marinade liquid. I will do this again next Easter as requested by my family.

I tried this for Easter dinner. Everyone agreed that it did not add much flavor at all. It was super disappointing. Also it destroyed my Food Network turkey roasting pan that I had only used 2 other times. I followed Trisha's directions but the glaze burned on the bottom of the pan. It was a nightmare to clean and it took off the coating of the pan and the pan even rusted. I will NEVER make this again!
