Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Rinse the ham and pat dry with paper towels.
Place the ham in a shallow roasting pan. In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, maple syrup, brown sugar and onion powder. Coat the ham entirely with the glaze using a spoon or brush.
Roast the ham uncovered for 2 hours in the preheated oven, or until heated through. Let it rest for about 15 minutes before carving to keep it from drying out.

This recipe should say to use a "Fully cooked" ham. If using an uncooked ham, follow the directions on the wrapper.

for those who like savory vs sweet, just pour a bottle of beer over top of your scored whole ham - two if you feel it necessary. I usually use one for a half and two for a whole. Then roast slow, 275, for 4 or so hours. We like fresh kolbassi vs smoked, and I put a pound or two of that around the ham for the last 2 hours.

I regularly make ham to be able to make soup the next day, and the recipe I used previously was good but fairly ingredient intensive. This recipe was quick, easy and tasted great. I used a spicy brown mustard, as that is what I had in the fridge. It gave it a nice zip. The ham was both sweet and savory at the same time. I will definately be using this for my everyday hams from now and probably even my special occassion hams also.

Easy and delicious. I had to improvise: The store was out of bone-in ham, so I used a pre-cooked, 2lb ham. I didn't have maple syrup so I substituted with honey. My husband raved!

Very nice ham. I used a 9 pound spiral sliced precooked ham and this turned out very well. I did not adjust the baste even though the ham was bigger and it was plenty. My son thought it was the best ham he ever ate. I admit I even had to get just one more piece even after I thought I was full. My husband doesn't like cloves and this was perfect for him too since it is one of the few recipes I've found without it. Nice balance of the mustard and the sweet, it wasn't too much one or the other.

Was very easy to make. Substituted honey for the maple syrup, dijon mustard for the yellow mustard, and omitted the onion powder..turned out great!!

I made this as described, but I left out the onion powder.. I used a 10 lb. butt portion ham, and put everything in an oven bag. It came out great! Moist, tender, and oh so flavorful! I will definitely use this recipe again.

This was a hit! I made this for easter and everyone was raving about the taste and the smell. I used a 9lb. ham instead of a 5lb. and there was plenty of sauce to cover the ham 3 times.
