Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 275°F.
  2. Line a large roasting pan with heavy-duty foil or parchment. Add the orange juice to the bottom of the pan.
  3. If the ham has a plastic disk, remove and discard it. Use a sharp knife to score diagonal lines, ⅛-inch deep along the ham. Place the ham, flat side down, in the pan.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and ground ginger. Rub the brown sugar mixture over the ham ensuring it is fully coated. Cover the pan tightly with foil.
  5. Bake for 4 hours without removing the foil or opening the oven.
  6. Carefully remove the foil and continue baking uncovered for an additional 1 to 2 hours, or until the ham reaches 205°F and is very tender when poked with a fork.
  7. Remove from oven and let the ham rest for 20 minutes. Shred the meat with two forks, discarding the bone and excess fat.
  8. Separate the fat from the drippings. Toss the pulled ham with the pan drippings and serve warm.
