BBQ + Maple Glazed Ham

Serves 8-10

 Ingredients 

• 330ml honey BBQ sauce or any other BBQ sauce
• ½ cup (125ml) maple syrup
• ¼ cup (60g) brown sugar
• Cloves to stud 
• 4.5kg Whole leg ham on the bone

Place BBQ sauce, maple syrup and brown sugar in a saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes until sugar dissolves.

Increase heat to medium-low and cook for 10 minutes or until thickened.

 Preheat the oven to 180°C. Use a sharp knife to cut around the ham shank. Carefully run a knife or fingers under the skin around the edge of the ham and gently lift off the skin in 1 piece and discard.

Using a sharp knife, score the fat in a diamond pattern, then press 1 clove into each diamond. 

Place a wire rack on top of a roasting pan and place ham over the rack. Cover the shank with foil. Brush ham with a glaze and bake for 1 hour, basting every 15 minutes with the remaining glaze until golden.

Slice and serve with your favourite trimmings.

Enjoy!
