Notes
NOTE: Peach jam can also be used.
NOTE: John rarely makes the glaze exactly the same way twice, so you don't have to be real strict with the measurements. This amount is more than sufficient for one spiral cut ham.
NOTE: This is a LOT of glaze. John likes to slather a lot of it on the ham before he cuts it and then more when we layer it in a pan and heat it the second time. You can cut the sauce ingredients in half if you're concerned about waste.
