Instructions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, honey, orange juice, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
Stir the mixture and bring it to a rapid boil, cooking for about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Brush or drizzle the glaze over the ham 20 minutes before it finishes cooking.
Return the ham to the oven uncovered, and bake for an additional 20 minutes until the glaze becomes slightly crispy, ensuring the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F.

Notes

For an extra zing, consider adding a splash of lemon juice.
This glaze works well with other meats, like chicken or pork.
Store any leftover glaze in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
