SOUTHERN BAKED HAM

1 15 to 20 lb. whole ham
(bone in)
1 cup brown sugar

1 t. ground cloves
1 can pineapple slices, drained
Maraschino cherries

Score ham long way and across with sharp knife making diamond shapes.  Insert cloves (2-3 per diamond) in center of diamonds. Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Arrange some pineapple slices on top of the ham. Place extra slices in bottom of pan.  Blend juice drained from pineapple with brown sugar and ground cloves. Pour over ham. 

Bake ham in 350 degree oven (15 minutes per pound)
Baste every 30 minutes minutes with pan juices.  About 40 minutes before ham is done, take out and garnish with pineapple slices.  Return to oven to finish cooking.  Remove ham to serving platter; place a cherry in the center of each pineapple slice.  Remove pineapple slices from bottom of pan and arrange around ham.
