Steps:
- Let the ham sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Trim off any skin from the ham. Use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Push the cloves into the ham, if using, placing them at the intersections of the cuts. Put the ham, flat-side down, on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Drain the pineapples, reserving the juice. Arrange the sliced pineapple all over the ham, securing with toothpicks. Add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick.
- Pour 1/4 inch water in the bottom of the pan and tent the ham with foil.
- Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham (avoiding bone) registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (or about 15 minutes per pound).
- Meanwhile, combine the honey, brown sugar and reserved pineapple juice in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, syrupy and reduced to about 3 cups, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside.
- Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.

SLOW COOKER HAM WITH PINEAPPLE
This ham was a big hit at an Easter party a few years back. I got the recipe and have been making it ever since! It's simple since it only has 3 ingredients, but it's delicious nonetheless! I prefer to leave my ham whole once it's done cooking, but others have said they like to shred the ham into chunks and mix the cooked pineapple with it.

BAKED HAM WITH PINEAPPLE
I got this from the Taste of Home website. The original recipe calls for a fully cooked ham but I always use an uncooked ham and cook it myself, you just have to cook it longer but a cooked ham would do just as well. This is the best ham I've ever had...honestly!

GLAZED HAM WITH PINEAPPLE
You can use a 14-pound bone-in ham also, and you can use more pineapple rings and maraschino cherries if desired to cover ham. A bone-in ham has just about the same amount of meat on it as a 7-8 boneless pound ham, as the bone accounts for about 4 pounds of the weight. This recipe can be made with both a bone-in or boneless ham. Stay close to the oven as this ham must be basted every 20 minutes. The cooking time is estimated depending on the size of ham, and also depends if you are cooking a bone-in or boneless ham, always check the weight on the package wrap and adjust the cooking time to that weight. The pineapple basting sauce can be made a day ahead and reheated before adding it into the roasting pan.

Tips:
- Choose the right ham: Select a fully cooked ham for easy preparation. Bone-in ham adds more flavor, but boneless ham is easier to carve.
- Enhance the flavor: Marinate the ham in a mixture of brown sugar, pineapple juice, and spices to infuse it with extra flavor.
- Brown the ham: Before baking, sear the ham in a hot skillet to create a caramelized crust that locks in the juices.
- Use quality pineapple: Fresh pineapple chunks or rings provide the best flavor and texture. Canned pineapple can be used, but it may be sweeter.
- Control the sweetness: Adjust the amount of brown sugar and pineapple juice based on your preference for sweetness.
- Check the internal temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C) for fully cooked ham.
- Let the ham rest: Allow the ham to rest for at least 15 minutes before carving to let the juices redistribute.
Conclusion:
Ham with pineapple is a classic and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for holidays, special occasions, or everyday meals. With its sweet, tangy, and savory flavors, it's a crowd-pleaser that's easy to prepare and customizable to your taste preferences. Experiment with different marinades, glazes, and side dishes to create a unique and memorable ham dish that will impress your family and friends.
