  • 1 15- to 18-lb. whole, fully cooked, bone-in ham
  • 3 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup spicy brown mustard
  • 3 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cloves
  • 1 can Dr Pepper
  1. Preheat the oven to 325 F. Place the ham in a large roasting pan with a rack, tent it with foil. Bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, or longer, depending on the package directions.
  2. Heat the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, cloves and Dr Pepper in a small saucepan until bubbly. Cook until reduced and a bit thicker, about 15 minutes.
  3. After about 2 hours of baking time, remove the foil and brush the glaze on the ham in 20 minutes intervals until it’s nice and glossy. (Put the ham back in the oven, uncovered, in between each basting.) Remove from the oven; allow to rest 15-20 minutes before carving. Pour any leftover glaze over the sliced ham.
