"Always keep the foil tightly sealed during the initial hours of baking; steam is your invisible sous-chef that keeps the mammoth 15-pound ham from drying out in the oven."

Chef's Notes
Do not rush the marination phase! Letting that brown sugar and clove paste mingle with the ham overnight transforms a simple pork roast into an absolute legend of the dining hall.
Pro Tip
When scoring the fat cap in a diamond pattern, only cut through the fat and not into the actual meat muscle. This allows the glorious brown sugar mixture to penetrate deeply without drying out the pork.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Failing to secure your foil tightly will cause the precious brown sugar drippings to evaporate and burn onto the bottom of your pan, filling your kitchen with acrid black smoke and leaving you with a bitter, charcoal-flavored ham that even the palace guard would refuse.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Our Jester notes that if the ham is this sweet, the King might mistake it for a dessert and try to eat it with a spoon before the main course!
The Culinary Science
The enzymes in fresh pineapple juice contain bromelain, which breaks down protein bonds and helps tenderize the outer layers of the ham while the sugars caramelize under heat.
