Honey Baked Spiral Ham



Spiral hams are perfect for the Holidays because they are precooked and sliced which makes for easy serving when it comes out of the oven. This simple homemade glaze is made with fresh orange juice, honey, pineapple juice, dijon mustard and a touch of brown sugar reduced down until it thickens.
