Preheat the oven to 325° F.

Place the 10 lb fully cooked bone-in ham in a large roasting pan.

Bake the ham for 2 hours.

In a small saucepan, add 1 and 1/4 cups of packed dark brown sugar, 1/3 cup of pineapple juice, and 1/3 cup of honey.

Zest a third of a large orange and add its juice to the saucepan.

Add 2 tbsp of Dijon mustard and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves to the saucepan.

Whisk the mixture together and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.

Reduce the heat to low and simmer the glaze until it thickens slightly, about 5 to 10 minutes.

Taste the glaze and adjust the seasoning if needed (add lemon juice for more tang or honey for more sweetness).

After 2 hours of baking, take the ham out of the oven and brush it with the glaze.

Return the ham to the oven and bake for another 30 to 45 minutes, brushing on the glaze every 10 minutes.

Drizzle any leftover glaze over slices of ham before serving.
