A sauce for ham that turns any ham into an instant hit!

For special occasions my dad always makes his special ham sauce that contains mustard and apple juice to go over the baked ham and everyone in the family always raves about it!

This recipe makes plenty for a huge gathering but you can always adjust it for the size of ham you are baking.

You can also try out my Baked Ham, Roast Cornish Hen, and Roast Chicken.
