INGREDIENTS:

5-6 pound fresh ham, bone-in (i.e. leg of pork with bone in and skin on)
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 bunch fresh thyme
1 bunch fresh sage

Apple-Cranberry Sauce:
6 pink lady apples, split in half
2 cups Ocean Spray® Fresh Cranberries, (if not fresh, frozen is fine)
1 cinnamon stick
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon pickling spice
1 tablespoon black mustard seeds
2 tablespoons sugar
1-inch piece of ginger
1 1/2 cups apple juice
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.

Score fat and put ham, fat side up, in a roasting pan. Rub with extra-virgin olive oil and season with plenty of salt and pepper all over. Tear sage and pick thyme leaves and scatter over ham. Cover loosely with foil and roast for 3 hours. Remove foil and roast for final hour uncovered.

In a large saucepan add all the sauce ingredients and simmer for 10-15 minutes until apples are almost falling apart and the sauce is fragrant. Remove cinnamon stick, ginger and bay leaf, then serve with baked fresh ham.

Serves 8-10
