Baked Ham
1 10 pound ham (I use fully cooked boneless)
1 large can pineapple juice
2 tsp. ground cloves
2 tsp. cinnamon
About 3 cups of light brown sugar ( use about half a bag)
Mix all except ham in a roaster, stirring well till brown sugar is disolved. Trim outer skin from ham, make a slit with knife on bottom, sides and top of ham. Place in juice mixture and bake covered at 350 for at least a couple of hours. Baste well with baster ever 30 minutes until done. I take the lid off for the last 30 minutes or so to lightly brown the top, but you don't really have to.
Note: This ham recipe was given to my mother by a mom & pop restaraunt owner. She did all of her own cooking and had a little restaraunt right on the corner of our street. Everyone raved about her ham. My mother helped her out a lot so she gave her the recipe. Everyone raves about this ham at Christmas and Easter! The secret I think is to slice it soon after it is done and let the slices sit in the juice in the fridge. Then when you are ready to serve, reheat at 350 in the oven right in the roaster with the juice. Leftovers are great on a soft roll with butter.
