Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place the ham cut side down in a large roasting pan. Drizzle the Worcestershire sauce on the ham. Rub the ham with brown sugar with a pinch of ground nutmeg.
  • In a small bowl, add the pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and dijon mustard. Mix until blended. Pour the mixture in the baking pan around the ham.
  • Scoring the ham. It depends on how much fat you want to remove. Score the ham on a fatty part. Cut slits crossing pattern about 1/4 inch deep. Insert a piece of the whole clove in each slit. Add the rest of the whole cloves and smashed garlic to the pan with the pineapple mixture.
  • First Roasting. Cover with aluminum foil. Roast in a preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours at 325°F (about 20 minutes/lb). Remove from the oven and remove the aluminum foil. Transfer the ham to a plate.
  • Make the pineapple maple glaze. In a saucepan with the strainer, pour the juices from the pan. On medium-high heat, let it simmer until thickened.
  • The pineapple/cranberry assembly. Return the ham to the roasting pan. Lay the sliced pineapple on the ham and place the cranberry in the middle of each pineapple ring. Secure them with wooden toothpicks.
  • Second Roasting. Return to the oven and roast for 10 to 12 minutes at 400°F uncovered. Remove from the oven, cover with aluminum foil and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • Glazing the Ham. Transfer the ham to a serving plate and generously baste the ham and fruit with the pineapple maple glaze.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and cranberries.
  • Slice and serve.
