Ingredients

  • 1 cup Ketchup For the base of the glaze
  • 20 ounces Canned pineapple slices In juice, slices and juices separated
  • ¾ cup Brown sugar Packed
  • ⅓ cup Yellow mustard For tanginess

  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder Adds flavor
  • ⅛ teaspoon Ground cloves For a warm spice note
  • 1 Hickory smoked spiral ham About 10 pounds, pre-cooked

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the ketchup, pineapple juice, brown sugar, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, black pepper, onion powder, and ground cloves.
