Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar

  • 1/2 cup honey

  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 cup apple cider, divided

  • 1 (8- to 9-pound) fully cooked bone-in spiral-cut ham half

Direction

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a roasting pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Stir together brown sugar, honey, mustard, salt, pepper, and 1/2 cup of the cider in a medium bowl.

  2. Place ham in prepared pan so that individual ham slices are perpendicular to pan bottom. Brush ham with 3/4 cup glaze, gently pushing glaze in between slices. Turn ham over so that bottoms of slices are now facing up; brush an additional 3/4 cup glaze in between slices. Turn ham so that the large, flat, cut side is facing down in pan.

  3. Pour remaining 1/2 cup cider into bottom of pan. Cover tightly with foil. Bake in preheated oven 1 1/2 hours. Remove from oven; remove and discard foil. Brush ham evenly with 1/3 cup glaze; return to oven, and bake 15 minutes. Remove from oven. Brush with 1/3 cup glaze; return to oven, and bake until a thermometer inserted in thickest portion of ham registers 140°F, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven; brush with remaining 1/3 cup glaze and pan drippings. Let stand 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
