Ham studded with cloves then baked is quite good. But since wifey won't let you
eat meat I will still describe what to do after the ham is baked. Pretty soon
after it comes out of the oven and still rather hot, the cloves are removed
from the little slits you made in the meat. They are discarded as they given
their all to the ham; slice ham and savor that heavenly taste of MEAT.

I can't speak for others here, but my hams are coated with a thick layer of
brown sugar after studded. About 2 cups of apple juice is added to the bottom
of the pan and then tightly covered. Baste with melted brown sugar and apple
juice a few times while it's baking.
