How do I cook a big ham?

Question

Do I put aluminum foil on the ham when it cooks?
What can I put on the ham so it will be good?

Answer 1

A smoked ham is already cooked so it's just a matter of warming it up and flavouring it. I put ginger ale in the bottom of the roast pan. Make a paste of brown sugar and mustard. During the last half hour, score the ham, insert a clove into each "diamond" and spread the mustard mixture on top. Add pineapple rings secured with a toothpick with a cherry in the centre. It looks lovely and tastes great. No foil needed, just a low temperature. Allow about 15 min per pound.

Answer 2

Get a can of sliced pineapple.
With some of the juice, make a thick paste with brown sugar.

First, remove most or all the skin. Take a knife and "score " diagonally across the bottom, in both directions. It should look like diamond shapes.
Then spread the brown sugar paste, fairly thick, over the entire ham.
Take whole cloves and place one at each intersection of the "diamond scores".
With toothpicks, attach the pinapple slices on the ham.
Bake.
