Ingredients needed to make Orange Cranberry Glazed Ham:

7 lb. cooked, smoked ham
1 cups packed brown sugar
1/4 cups packed brown sugar

3/4 cup cranberry juice cocktail
2 tbsp cider vinegar
1/4 cup honey
1 1/2 tbsp butter

whole cloves
1 1/2 tbsp prepared mustard
2 tsp all purpose flour

orange slices and cranberries for garnish

Preparation Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Carefully cut the skin off of the ham and score it with a sharp knife. Place whole cloves inside the scored areas and put the ham in a roasting pan that has a rack to bake. Bake uncovered for 1 hour.

Combine 1/4 cup of the brown sugar, honey, vinegar, cranberry juice cocktail, butter and flour in a small pan and bring to a boil. Cook the mixture for 1 minute.

Coat the ham with the remaining 1 cup of brown sugar. Pour some of the hot cranberry glaze over the ham and bake for 30 more minutes, or until a meat thermometer reaches 140 degrees. Use the remaining cranberry glaze to baste the ham several more times during baking.
