The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.

  • 1 tbsp freshly ground black pepper

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Trim excess fat from the ham, leaving a 0.6 cm (1/4 inch) layer of fat. Using a sharp knife, score the surface of the fat. Place the ham on a large, rimmed baking sheet.

    In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, salt, black pepper, cumin, ginger, mustard powder, and cinnamon. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the mixture for the glaze. Rub the remaining mixture over the ham.

    Wrap the meat in cling film and refrigerate for 8-12 hours. Marinating the meat overnight will allow it to fully infuse with the flavor of the spices.
  2. Preheat a charcoal grill to 300°F (150°C) over indirect heat.

    Place the ham on the grill grate, flat side down. Close the grill and roast the ham for 2 hours.

  3. Place the butter, thyme, honey, vinegar, and reserved dry ingredients in a medium saucepan and heat until the butter melts. Stir until smooth.

    Brush the ham with the glaze, cover the grill, and bake for another 30 minutes, basting with the glaze every 10 minutes. Transfer to a platter, let rest for 30 minutes, then slice and serve.
