DOUBLE-DUTY HEAVENLY CITRUS HAM

Double-Duty Heavenly Citrus Ham image

This recipe is special because it's based on the ham my grandma and mom used to make for holidays. Leftovers can be frozen up to 3 months, and thawed before using. You'll want to remember this recipe for Easter! -Penny Hawkins, Mebane, North Carolina
