Cover with foil and place in pre-heated oven. Calculate cooking time.(Your ham should have it's own instructions) It's about 15 minutes per pound, so for example; if you have a 20 pound ham, the cooking time would be 15 minutes for each pound, which would be 4 pounds per hour, which would equal 5 hours cooking time Remove foil 30 minutes before time to take out and give it 15 minutes of resting time before carving.

Steps:

• Before baking ham, place pineapple slices on ham with toothpicks and place cherries in center of pineapple.

Steps:
