The 7-Up helps to tenderize but also cuts down on the salty flavor. This recipe is always a hit.

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 pounds ham, fully cooked
whole cloves
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 cup 7-UP (or Dr. Pepper)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Remove any tough outer rind from the ham. Rinse the ham well with cool water. Place the ham on a cutting board. Cut diamond-shaped slits in the fat side of the ham. Insert cloves, stem-side down, into the slits. Place the ham fat-side up in a shallow roasting pan. In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar and mustard. Rub the ham with the mixture, pressing it firmly so it adheres. Gently pour the 7-UP over the ham (trying not to rinse off the brown sugar mixture). Place the ham in the oven and bake, uncovered, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until heated through (it should reach 145 degrees F on a meat thermometer). Baste the ham every 15 minutes with the juices in the bottom of the pan. Remove the pan from the oven and let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
