Serves 12  Cook Time 8 hours 35 minutes

Ingredients:
1 (8 pound) bone-in ham shank
at least 4 Cups water
½ Cup Splenda brown sugar
2 Tbsp liquid smoke flavoring
2 Tbsp Worchestershire
1 pinch fresh ground clove

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Place ham in a roasting pan. Pour in water to a 2 inch depth. Cover with a tight fitting lid.
2. Bake for 6 to 8 hours in the preheated oven (all day or all night). Remove from the oven, pour off drippings and reserve. De-bone ham, removing any excess fat as well, and return to the roasting pan.
3. Skim fat from the top of the drippings, and discard. In a small bowl, mix one cup of the drippings with Splenda brown sugar, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce and cloves. Pour this over the ham, cover and return to the oven.
