Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and place the bone-in ham in a large roasting pan, flat side down. Score the top of the ham with shallow cuts, creating a diamond pattern.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard until smooth. Add ground cinnamon and cloves followed by pineapple juice.
  3. Generously brush the prepared glaze over the scored surface of the ham and add pineapple rings on top. Cover the ham loosely with foil.
  4. Roast the ham for approximately 15 minutes per pound, basting every 30 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C).
  5. During the last 30 minutes, remove the foil and brush the remaining glaze over the ham.
  6. Remove from the oven and tent with foil. Allow the ham to rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
