“This is one of our favorite recipes and I have made it a half a dozen times or so,” shares Auntylene. “It is so easy to prepare before I go to work in the morning and when I get home it is ready and delicious. What a welcome smell when I walk in the door!”

“This recipe results in a moister ham than one baked in the oven,” says reviewer Cathy D. “You can use a pre-cooked spiral cut ham, but you have to cook it for a much shorter time than the recipe indicates.”

“Ridiculously simple,” raves Tim. “I added whole cloves (around 18) and used my injector every 2 hrs 30 minutes to inject that juice and baste the outside. REALLY good!”
