Double-Duty Heavenly Citrus Ham
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 1-3/4 hours + standing

This recipe is special because it's based on the ham my grandma and mom used to make for holidays. Leftovers can be frozen up to 3 months and thawed before using. You'll want to remember this recipe for Easter! —Penny Hawkins, Mebane, North Carolina

-
1 fully cooked bone-in ham (6 to 8 pounds)

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup Dijon mustard
Directions

1.
Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes 1/2 in. deep; insert a clove in the center of each diamond. Loosely cover ham with foil. Bake at 325° for 1-1/2 hours.

In a small saucepan, combine the soda, marmalade and brown sugar. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Stir in mustard.

Brush ham with some of the glaze; bake 15-30 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 140°, basting occasionally with remaining glaze. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Slice and cube 2 cups ham; save for Ham & Noodle Bake. Slice and serve remaining ham.
