Instructions:

Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
Prepare the Ham:
Place the ham in a roasting pan, fat side up. If the ham has a rind, use a sharp knife to score it in a diamond pattern about 1/4 inch deep.
Stud the Ham:
Insert whole cloves into the scored diamond pattern on the ham. This not only adds flavor but also creates an attractive presentation.
Prepare the Glaze:
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, orange juice, pineapple juice, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and black pepper. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is completely dissolved.
Heat the Glaze:
Bring the glaze to a simmer, then reduce the heat and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes until it thickens slightly. Remove it from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
Glaze the Ham:
Brush a generous amount of the glaze over the entire surface of the ham. Make sure to get the glaze into the scored areas for maximum flavor.
