Bourbon Glazed Ham From Martha Stewart Living Site

Martha Stewart Living Television
Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 2 hours, 10 minutes
Yield Serves 12
 

Ingredients
1/2 fully cooked smoked bone-in ham (about 7 pounds), not spiral cut
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons bourbon, cider, or water

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Trim all but 1/4 inch fat from the ham, and score remaining fat in 3/4-inch diamonds, just deep enough to reach the meat without cutting into it. Place ham, fat side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, mustard, and bourbon. Brush 1/4 of the glaze over the ham. Bake the ham, brushing with remaining glaze every 30 minutes, until heated through (140 degrees on a meat thermometer), about 2 hours.
Let ham stand about 15 minutes before carving. Using a knife with a long blade, carve downward to the bone. Run the knife horizontally through the ham, along the top of the bone, to release the slices.

Variations

Martha has also prepared this recipe by trimming all but 1/2 inch of fat from the ham in Step 1 of the instructions
