1/4 cup (55 g) brown sugar
1/4 cup (59 ml) honey
2-3 tablespoons glaze packet

Brush on extra glaze once per hour.

Notes

For best results, choose a high-quality, fully cooked spiral-cut ham.
Use a reliable meat thermometer to monitor the internal temperature of the ham, ensuring it reaches 140°F(60°C) for safe consumption.
Consider using fruitwood pellets, such as apple or cherry, to impart a complementary sweet and fruity flavor to the ham.
