Read Carve Ham Warming Instructions.
In a small pot, combine ¾ cup of the brown sugar and pineapple juice. Simmer until sugar is dissolved. Turn off heat.
Heat oven to 350 degree F. Remove ham from packaging and place flat side down in a 2 inch deep baking pan, fat side UP.
Pour pineapple juice mixture over ham. Cover ham tightly with aluminum foil to help retain moisture.
Bake approximately 10 minutes per pound or until internal temperature reaches 130 deg F.
Remove ham from oven. Pour some liquid from pan over ham. Then spread evenly the remaining brown sugar.
Broil until brown sugar starts to melt. Don’t burn.
Remove ham from oven. Again cover loosely with foil not touching the glaze. Let stand for 10 minutes until internal temperature reaches 140 degree F before slicing to serve.
Refrigerate leftovers within two hours. Once opened use within 3 to 5 days or you may freeze in an air tight container for a month.

You may add pineapple chunks when you put the ham in the oven or use it as a garnish.
For a much tastier slice of ham fry it with a teaspoon to 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Glaze will burn easily so be next to the stove.
