Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 300°. Pat meat dry. Combine cinnamon, ginger, garlic powder and salt; sprinkle mixture over meat, patting to adhere. Insert whole cloves about 1 in. apart. Place on a rack in 15x10x1-in. baking pan lined with foil. Let stand 30 minutes. Bake until fork-tender, about 3 hours. Remove from oven; discard cloves. Increase oven setting to 425°.
  2. For glaze, microwave ingredients on high until sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Brush glaze over roast. Return to oven until dark brown and caramelized, 12-15 minutes, brushing with glaze halfway through cooking. Remove from oven; let stand 45 minutes before slicing.
