Steps:
- Let the ham sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Trim off any skin from the ham. Use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Push the cloves into the ham, if using, placing them at the intersections of the cuts. Put the ham, flat-side down, on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Drain the pineapples, reserving the juice. Arrange the sliced pineapple all over the ham, securing with toothpicks. Add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick.
- Pour 1/4 inch water in the bottom of the pan and tent the ham with foil.
- Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham (avoiding bone) registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (or about 15 minutes per pound).
- Meanwhile, combine the honey, brown sugar and reserved pineapple juice in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, syrupy and reduced to about 3 cups, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside.
- Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
- Uncover the pan and carefully brush a third of the glaze all over the ham. If the water in the roasting pan has evaporated, add more. Bake the ham for 15 minutes more. Brush with another third of the glaze and bake for 15 minutes more. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham and cook until the glaze is shiny and the skin is dark golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes more. Let rest for 15 minutes.
HAM.... HAM IN A CHERRY, COLA AND PINEAPPLE GLAZE
I was thinking of a different way of cooking a ham while at work, you know no peak! So I looked in the frig and cupboard to see what I could come up with as far as a glaze that could be used in a crock pot. I cooked it on a warm temperature for 4-5 hours to release all the water in the ham. Then added the glaze.

Steps:
- Wash the ham well under cold water to remove all excess salt.
- In a crock pot, put cut side of ham face down. Insert all the cloves into the ham.
- Cut the cherries and pineapple in half and insert a tooth pick to keep the cherries and pineapple in place on the ham. Turn on warm for 4 hours. This will release the water in the ham. After 4 hours drain the water and discard.
- In a medium bowl add cherry juice, cola, mustard, apple juice, brown sugar and Jalepeno ground pepper. Mix well and put into frig to chill. Pour the sauce over the ham, spread around with a spoon or brush. Then turn temp to low for 4 hours.
- NOTE: My crock pot is very hot, some of you might need to turn it up to high to maintain the temperature Baste every 30-45 minutes. Serve hot.

PINEAPPLE GLAZED HAM
An easy Pineapple Glazed Ham recipe. If you buy a boneless ham, you'll still have the same amount of meat to eat, about 10 to 12 pounds (because the bone accounts for about 4 pounds). The bottom line is that the recipe directions are the same, regardless of the cut of ham.

Steps:
- 1. Combine the pineapple juice, ginger, and garlic in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer 25 minutes, reducing the liquid by half (to 2 cups). Strain and reserve.
- 2. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- 3. Carefully trim the thick rind and all but 1/4 inch of fat from the surface of the ham. With a sharp knife, score a diamond pattern and insert the cloves at the crossed points of the diamonds.
- 4. Set the ham in a shallow baking pan. Brush the mustard all over the top. Pat the sugar atop the mustard.
- 5. Starting at the butt end, decoratively arrange the pineapple rings, securing with cherries and toothpicks in the centers, working toward the bone. Pour the reserved pineapple juice into the bottom of the pan and place in the oven.
- 6. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, basting every 15 minutes.
- 7. When the ham is done, place it on a serving platter and let rest for 15 minutes. Carve into thin slices, beginning at the butt end. Serve warm with pan sauce alongside. Remove the pineapple slices and cherries as you carve and serve them with the ham.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a saucepan. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, ground cloves and pineapple juice and let simmer not even 5 minutes, just until the mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat. Stick a toothpick in the cherry and lay pineapple ring around as many as you want to make beautiful, just drizzle glaze all over the top to soak in the pineapple. Cover with foil and place in pre-heated oven. Calculate cooking time.(Your ham should have it's own instructions) It's about 15 minutes per pound, so for example; if you have a 20 pound ham, the cooking time would be 15 minutes for each pound, which would be 4 pounds per hour, which would equal 5 hours cooking time Remove foil 30 minutes before time to take out and give it 15 minutes of resting time before carving.

CHERRY PINEAPPLE GLAZED HAM
I am lucky to receive a spiral sliced ham from my boss each Christmas. This year I wanted to glas it differently, but I forgot to get ingredients at the store, so I had to use what was on hand. This recipe was born. Cook time does not include warming the ham.

Steps:
- Remove ham from packaging and warm according to directions on package.
- Meanwhile combine all other ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil till mixture starts to thicken.
- After ham is warm, remove from oven and heat oven to 425. Carefully loosen slices(do not remove from bone)and brush glaze all over ham liberally.
- Put uncoved in oven, cook for about 20 to 30 minutes Basting with glaze every 10 minutes Ham should be "golden" brown.
- Allow to cool and remove slices from bone according to carving instructions on packaging.
Tips:
- To ensure the ham is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The ham is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C) for a medium-rare ham, 145°F (63°C) for a medium ham, or 150°F (66°C) for a well-done ham.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the ham by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the ham. If the juices run clear, the ham is done.
- Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the ham, making it more tender and flavorful.
- To make the glaze, use fresh pineapple juice for the best flavor. You can also use canned pineapple juice, but be sure to choose a brand that is unsweetened.
- The glaze can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When you're ready to use it, simply reheat it over low heat until it is warmed through.
