This Rosemary and Marmalade Glazed Ham is the easiest and most delicious way to impart flavor and sweetness into an ordinary ham.
- 1 10-pound cooked ham
- Small handful if cloves
- 1 15-ounce jar of orange marmalade
- 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
- Use a sharp knife to score the ham in a criss-cross pattern. Be sure to cut through the skin and fat to the flesh. You can completely remove the skin if you like, but I prefer to leave it on. Insert a clove at each intersection of your pattern.
- Remove the leaves of the rosemary and rough chop them. Combine the marmalade and rosemary in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Roast ham at 400 degrees F for 20 minutes. Pour half the rosemary and marmalade mixture over the ham, using a brush to spread it evenly in and around the pattern you cut, so the ham is well coated. Return to the oven for another 20 minutes.
- Pour the remainder of the glaze over the ham and spread around. Return to the oven an additional 20 minutes.
- Keep checking every 20 minutes,basting with pan drippings until ham is browned and glazed to your liking. An hour and 20 minutes, total, usually does it for me.
