This was excellent! I substituted the corn syrup for an equal amount of brown sugar (corn allergy), reduced the honey to 3/4 cup (all I had), used 1/4 tsp. ground cloves, and the full 2/3 cup butter. It was awesome. The only problem I had was that I didn't follow directions, and tried to keep it at a very low heat vs. the double boiler, and it ended up gradually burning and I didn't get to glaze it as long as I would've liked. Also, even w/the reduced amount of honey, it made a lot of glaze and w/o burning (!!) would've made enough to glaze my 9 lb. ham.

This glaze turned out really good! Like others, I used brown sugar instead of the corn syrup and I also added some pineapple juice to the base~ it was very tasty!

I cut the glaze ingredients in half and subbed brown sugar for the corn syrup. I got lucky and this amt. was just right for my 10 lb. ham. I ended up baking it for about 2hrs. 15 min. since it was so big. The results were delicious! This will be our Easter tradition. Thanks so much for a great recipe!

I used brown sugar instead of corn syrup and added a splash of orange juice. This turned out really well.

I thought this was a really nice addition to my easter ham. I only cut slices halfway into the ham-- next time I think I might cook my ham first next time, then cut it up, then glaze it, then pop it back into the oven for a bit longer. Then the glaze can get all over every piece.

I made this recipe for our Easter Sunday dinner and it is a true 'keeper'! I used the listed amount of glaze in the recipe for a 9 pound spiral sliced ham and it was plenty. Thank you for the wonderful recipe. It will be definitely be the way all our future hams will be prepared.....can't wait for leftovers!!

Tasty, but recipe made too much glaze. All it did was slide off ham and carmelize on the bottom of the pan.

Wanted a change of pace glaze from my brown sugar pineapple basting sauve for our Easter Sunday Ham and this was perfect. Didn't have a double boiling pan so used the microwave set on 50% until the butter melted and the ingredients blended well. Definitely will make it again.

I followed all of Cookeratheart's suggestions - only 1 c. honey, and 1/4 tsp cloves instead of the whole cloves and I sliced my whole ham before I put it in the crockpot. We loved it!!! Even my picky sister & brother who don't like ham thought this was fabulous!

I used a pre-sliced ham, and baked it for about an hour. The edges were a little overcooked for my taste, but the glaze was awesome. A very simple recipe that everyone loved.

This was awesome! I bought an 11 lb. ham so I doubled the sauce and per some reviewers I thought adding the brown sugar would be good. So I made one batch with the corn syrup and one substituting brown sugar. It was wonderful! We had this for Easter and everyone raved about it! They also said it was so pretty that it looked like it should be in a magazine! This will be the ONLY way I will make ham from now on!

I really wanted to like this recipe and give it 5 stars after reading all the rave reviews. However, it was just o.k. I will stick to making my pineapple,cherry and brown sugar glaze. I was hoping this would give me the taste and texture of the Original Honeybaked Ham, but it diddnt.The glaze was flavorful, but I found it to be bothersome basting so much and it diddnt make that much of an impact on me. Was'nt bad by any means but was'nt spectacular either.

Very yummy! I did half the amount of corn syrup and added 1/4 cup brown sugar. I also cut the honey down to 1 cup, but still found it a bit to honeyish so I added a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and allspice. Came out wonderful.....will use again.

I can't really state why this did not work for me. Maybe just too sweet? Sugary? I don't know. My family did not like this very much either.

This ham is fantastic, I just leave out the cloves because we don't care for them. Had this for Christmas dinner and it was a hit with the entire family.

Very tasty. Great that there are few ingredients. I made this for Thanksgiving dinner & Christmas, as well. It's really nice to have something special like this to serve at the holidays since I don't like turkey.

Fantastic! I love Honey-Baked ham but not the price you have to pay for them. I decided to try this. Pretty bold since I was having 22 people for dinner. It was a huge hit! I bought a 7 lb pre-cooked spiral ham for this recipe. I like many others used brown sugar and only 1 cup of honey because that is all I had. The glaze was not sticky like others said, nor did I have to keep it warm until I had used it all. I did use heavy duty aluminum foil and was glad I did. It leaked out a bit but was not hard to clean at all. I will make this many more times. It is a definite keeper! Thanks so much for sharing.
