Candy or Ham...Why not both!

I know that this title might sound questionable! And just to put your mind to ease, there is no candy in this Ham Recipe. But there is definitely enough sugar for it to be considered cAnDy! Even if you don't love ham...you have to try it like this!

{Country Style Candied Ham}

1 Bone-in Ham {uncut}
1 cup honey

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup orange juice

In a small mixing bowl mix together honey, sugar & juice. Set aside. Place 1 TBSP flour in oven bag & set in large casserole dish {Pyrex}. Place ham into bag & pour honey mixture over meat. Cook in a 325 degree oven for 4-6 hours.

Slice ham & let sit in juices until ready to serve.
