How do you season a ham?

Ingredients:

- 1 Fully cooked ham

- Brown sugar (1/4 cup)

- Yellow mustard (1 tbsp)

- Honey (1 tbsp)

- Ground cloves (1/4 tsp)

- Ground cinnamon (1 tsp)

- Garlic powder (1 tsp)

- Ginger powder (1/4 tsp)

- Freshly cracked black pepper (1/2 tsp)

Here are the instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius).

2. Remove the ham from its packaging, set it on a baking rack in a roasting pan and let it come to room temperature for about an hour.

3. In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, yellow mustard, honey, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, garlic powder, ginger powder, and freshly cracked black pepper. Mix all ingredients until they are well combined to create a seasoning mixture.

4. Use a sharp knife to score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, making sure not to cut through the fat layer.

5. Brush the ham generously with the seasoning mixture. Ensure you thoroughly cover all sides of the ham.

6. Place the baking rack with the seasoned ham in the preheated oven and bake it according to the directions on the ham packaging. The total baking time will vary depending on the size and weight of the ham, but it usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes per pound.

7. Remove the ham from the oven once the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees Fahrenheit (60 degrees Celsius), as measured by a meat thermometer.

8. Cover the ham with aluminum foil and let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Serve your seasoned ham with your favorite sides and enjoy!
