BONE IN SPIRAL SLICED HAM RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees F. 
• In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, honey, orange zest, 1/4 cup orange juice, pumpkin pie spice, and nutmeg. Season with salt. 
• Roll out enough aluminum foil to surround the ham and place the ham in the center of the foil. Peel back the layers of the ham and place a sprig of thyme between every other layer of the spirals. Pour half of the glaze over the ham allowing it to sink into the slices. Tightly wrap the ham in the foil and place on a rack in a roasting pan. Fill the pan with an inch of water and roast in the oven until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F, about 20 minutes per pound. 
• Pour the remaining half of the glaze in a small saucepot on medium heat and bring to a simmer. Whisk until small bubbles appear all over, then turn off the heat. The glaze will thicken as it rests. 
• Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. 
• Remove the ham from the oven. Using caution and tongs to help, peel back the aluminum foil from the top, leaving the aluminum foil on the sides and underneath the ham to catch the glaze and juices. Slather the remaining glaze all over the top of the ham and place back in the oven uncovered for 15 more minutes. Remove and let rest before slicing.

Steps:

• Let your wrapped ham sit on the counter for about an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 275F. Line two pieces of foil in different directions on top of a large baking sheet. Remove all the packaging from the ham and discard (keep the glaze if you're using that in place of the one posted here, otherwise you can discard it). Place the ham on top of the foil.
• Mix together all the ham glaze ingredients. Spread the glaze all over the top and sides of the ham and between each slice (you can use a brush but I find that using my hands is easiest). Pull up the sides of the foil and wrap the ham gently (not loose but not too tight, either), using additional foil if necessary.
• Place the ham in the oven and bake it for approximately 18 minutes per pound, opening the foil to baste with the juices a couple of times during cooking.
• Remove from the oven and baste once more with the juices (you can serve extra at the table if desired).
