Ingredients

One 9-pound fully cooked ham, bone-in, scored ¼-inch deep in a
diamond pattern
10 3-inch cinnamon sticks cut in half lengthwise into 20 pieces
4 Navel oranges, sliced crosswise into 1/3-inch slices (20
slices)
5 lemons, sliced crosswise into 1/3-inch slices (20 slices)
10 bay leaves
¼ teaspoon black pepper
One 13-ounce jar orange marmalade
¼ cup light brown sugar
½ cup orange juice
½ cup water
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of ground cloves

 
 
 

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

Place the ham, cut side down, in a large roasting pan. Insert the
cinnamon sticks partially into the scored ham at even intervals.
Skewer one orange slice and one lemon slice onto each cinnamon
stick and push the slices down so that they fit snugly against
the ham. Tuck the bay leaves around the orange slices. Sprinkle
the ham with the black pepper. Bake the ham, uncovered, until it
reaches an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 2 hours.
Baste the ham with the glaze during the last hour of cooking.

Make the glaze when the ham first goes into the oven: Combine the
marmalade, brown sugar, orange juice, water, hot sauce, ginger,
and cloves in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook until
mixture reduces to a glaze consistency and coats the back of a
spoon.
