Baked Virginia Ham

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Soak the ham two days in cold water, changing the water four times. Then put in fresh cold water, bring to the boiling point, and let simmer for four to six hours until tender, when pierced with a fork. When cool remove the skin, stick with cloves, cover with brown sugar and sprinkle with fine cracker crumbs. Brown in the oven.
