Ingredients

• 8 lb spiral-cut ham
• 1 cup dark brown sugar
• 0.5 cup honey
• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 2 tbsp sriracha sauce
• 1 tsp cayenne pepper
• 2 tsp smoked paprika
• 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
• 0.25 tsp cloves (ground)
• 0.5 cup orange juice
• 2 tbsp butter (unsalted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).

Step 2

Place the spiral-cut ham in a large roasting pan, flat-side down.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, sriracha sauce, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, orange juice, and butter.

Step 4

Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the glaze is smooth. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Using a pastry brush, generously coat the ham with about 1/3 of the spicy glaze, making sure to get between the slices to enhance the flavor.

Step 6

Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and bake the ham in the preheated oven for 90 minutes. Baste the ham with the glaze from the roasting pan every 30 minutes.

Step 7

After 90 minutes, remove the foil, baste the ham with 1/3 more of the spicy glaze, and increase the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).

Step 8

Continue baking the ham uncovered for an additional 30 minutes, or until the edges begin to caramelize and develop a slightly crispy texture. Baste with the remaining glaze halfway through this final step.

Step 9

Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Slice and serve warm, allowing guests to enjoy the rich, spicy, and sweet flavors of Big Daddy's signature spiral ham!
