Jamon Con Sangria (Sangria Ham)
- 8 -10 lbs bone-in ham
- 1/4 cup whole cloves
- 1 lb brown sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
- 2 cups sangria (red)
- Remove rind from ham.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Use a sharp knife to score the ham a quarter inch deep in a diamond pattern.
- Place in large roasting pan fat side up, and stud the whole cloves in the center of each "diamond".
- Pack the top of the ham with the whole pound of brown sugar to coat the surface as thickly as possible.
- Roast uncovered for 20 minutes so sugar begins to melt.
- Mix pineapple juice and sangria. When the sugar has begun to melt, pour 1 cup of the sangria/juice mixture over ham, and return the ham to the oven for 30-40 minutes.
- After one hour in the oven, baste ham with remaining mixture, stirring into the drippings. Return the ham to the oven for 2 more hours, basting after the first hour with the remaining wine mixture.
- Lower oven temperature to 325 degrees; baste ham every 20 minutes with pan drippings for final hour of cooking. A meat thermometer should read 160 degrees before serving.
