INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1 (12 pound) bone-in ham
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup whole cloves (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Cut 1 inch deep criss-crosses into the flat side of the ham. In a small bowl, mix together the butter and honey. Slather onto the ham, making sure to get in the crevices too. Insert cloves into the ham if desired. Place in a roasting pan.
  3. Bake for 4 hours in the preheated oven, or 20 minutes per pound. The internal temperature should reach 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Baste every 20 minutes with the drippings. Remove, slice, serve, savor.
