Instructions
1. In a huge pan, join the salt and sugar with 2 quarts of the water. Heat to the point of boiling over reasonably high warmth, blending to break down the salt and sugar. Empty the salt water into an extensive pot. Blend in the peppercorns, chiles and cloves. Include the remaining 4 quarts of water and the ice and blend until the ice has softened and the saline solution is at room temperature. Include the ham, skin side up; the skin does not need to be submerged. Saline solution the ham in the icebox for 24 hours.2. Preheat the broiler to 400°. Expel the ham from the saline solution and forget about the peppercorns and cloves. Set the ham skin side up in a broiling container and let stand for 30 minutes at room temperature
3. Broil the ham for 60 minutes; turn the container and include some water part of the way through. Diminish the stove to 300° and broil the ham for 2 1/2 hours longer, until a moment read thermometer embedded into the thickest piece of the meat registers 150°. Exchange the ham to a cutting board and let rest for 30 minute
4. Strain the container juices into a pot; skim off the fat. Include the chicken stock and heat to the point of boiling. Cut the skin off of the ham and break it into pieces. Meagerly cut the meat and present with the jus and fresh skin.
