Ingredients
- 1 whole (8-9 pounds) ham, bone-in
- 1 cup (240 g) apple butter
- ½ cup (170 g) honey
- ½ cup (100 g) light brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- ¼ cup (60 g) apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F.
- Place the ham on a cutting board. With a sharp knife, score the top of the ham. Begin by making a shallow cut (about ¼ to ½-inch deep) in the fat or skin of the ham. To do this, position your knife where you want to start the cut and gently press down while pulling the knife towards you. The cut should be about 1-2 inches long. Continue making cuts in the fat, spacing them about 1 to 2 inches apart. The cuts should form a diagonal or crisscross pattern, creating a diamond or checkerboard pattern on the ham's surface.
- Place the scored ham in a roasting pan with the scored portion facing up.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the apple butter, honey, brown sugar, mustard, and apple cider vinegar. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sugar is dissolved.
- Pour the glaze on top of the ham. Tent the ham loosely with aluminum foil.
- Roast for 2 hours, carefully basting with the juices in the pan every 30 minutes.
- Remove the roasted ham from the oven. (The internal temperature of the ham should read 145°F.) Let the ham rest for about 15 minutes before slicing.
- Enjoy!
