Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Mix maple syrup
orange juice
ginger ale
brown sugar
and honey together in a medium bowl. Stir in juice from maraschino cherries
and 1/2 of the cherries.
Score the outer edge of the ham with a sharp knife in a diamond pattern. Cuts should be about 1/4 inch deep to allow the ham to soak up the juice.
Place ham into an oven bag
and carefully pour the juice mixture over it
keeping all of the juice in the bag (it may look like there is too much juice
but the ham will soak it up while baking).
Place pineapple slices on top of ham
and secure with toothpicks. Place cherries into the center of pineapple rings
and secure with toothpicks also. Tie the end of the bag closed with the ties provided
place in a large roasting pan
and cut a few small slits in the top of the oven bag.
Bake ham for 2 hours in the preheated oven. The internal temperature should be 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) when done. Be sure not to touch the bone when taking the temperature.
Remove ham from bag to a serving plate
