Get a 15 to 18 pound ham with bone in. Line baking pan with foil. Place ham on rack in pan (after the skin is cut off and the fat trimmed). Place fat side up. Score long way and across making diamond shapes. Place whole cloves in shapes usually two to each diamond.

Mix the juice from a large can of pineapple slices and 1 cup brown sugar plus 1 teaspoon ground cloves into a syrup. Pour this over ham. Baste about each 45 minutes. Ham should be baked in 350 degree oven 15 minutes per pound (15 pounds would be 2 hours 25 minutes). About 45 minutes before ham is done, take out and garnish with pineapple slices and candied cherries. Return to oven and finish baking.
