This is so good. I didn't use a spiral cut ham, but a bone in ham. This is so good. The smell coming from the oven when you are basting it with the fruit juices is amazing. Then, you add the honey sugar mixture and its fabulous. I though DD#1 was going to lick the ham as I was taking it out of the oven!!! I looked beautiful and smelled even better. I will always use this recipe for my hams, Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

have not tried this recipe yet, sounds yummy. i noticed some reviews talked about cutting into the ham for better penetration of the juice mixture. my thought is getting a meat injector and put the juice in that way. chef g

Made this ham for a family get together. It had a nice glaze and everyone liked it. The only thing I would do different next time is to lay the ham so that the sliced part is on top so the fruit juice mixture would go into the slices.

Dawn, This is an awesome and easy recipe for honey baked ham! The fruit juices were great for basting (Although I continually basted with just the fruit juices for a 1/2 hour, then put on the honey/brownsugar glaze and continued to baste every 15 minutes until my meat thermometer reached 140. (it ended up cooking for about 2 hours in the end). the ham was very flavourful, and the basting really cut a lot of the saltiness of ham. Thanks! This recipe is a keeper!
