  • 18 lb cured ham
  • 2-12 oz cans gingerale
  • canned pineapple rings
  • brown sugar
  • maraschino cherries

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees

Place ham in a shallow roasting pan. Baste the ham with gingerale. Using toothpicks, stick some pineapple rings on the ham, about 4-5 rings.

Sprinkle some brown sugar on the rings. With toothpicks, place a cherry in each pineapple ring hole and then stick some cloves in the rings. Cover the ham with foil. Bake for 15-18 minutes per pound of ham, or until the ham reaches an internal temp of 140 degrees.
