Heavenly Citrus Ham
Prep: 15 min. Bake: 1 hour 50 min. + standing Yield: 9 Servings

Ingredients
1 fully cooked bone-in ham (6 to 8 pounds)
Whole cloves
1-¼ cups orange soda
1-¼ cups orange marmalade
½ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup Dijon mustard

Directions
Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes ½ in. deep; insert a clove in the center of each diamond. Loosely cover ham with foil. Bake at 325° for 1-½ hours.
In a small saucepan, combine the soda, marmalade and brown sugar. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Stir in mustard.
Brush ham with some of the glaze; bake 20-30 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 140°, basting occasionally with remaining glaze. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
Slice and cube 2 cups ham; save for Ham & Noodle Bake (recipe also in Recipe Finder). Slice and serve remaining ham. Yield: 9 servings plus leftovers.
