Wonderful, from Houston Jr. League Stop and Smell the Rosemary. Cooking time will vary, so time given is approximate. You can modify cooking heat/time and use a spiral-sliced ham - save the glaze packet that comes with it for another time. Ingredients:
1 medium butt-portion ham |
whole cloves |
1 cup water |
1 cup cream sherry |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger (or 1 t. grated fresh ginger) |
1/2 cup orange marmalade |
1/2 cup bourbon |
2 teaspoons mustard |
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Line a large roasting pan with foil.
3. If necessary, trim the rind and fat from the ham, leaving only 1/4 layer of fat.
4. Place the ham in the roasting pan.
5. Score the ham in a diamond pattern, with a sharp knife.
6. Stick one whole clove into the center of each diamond.
7. Combine water, sherry and ginger in a small bowl, then pour over ham.
8. Bake 5 minutes per pound.
9. Combine the marmalade, bourbon and mustard in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until warm, about 5 minutes.
10. Stir occasionally.
11. Increase oven temp to 450°F.
12. Brush the glaze over the cooked ham, then sprinkle with the brown sugar.
13. Bake until ham reaches a rich brown color, about 20 minutes.
14. Spoon off the fat from the pan juices.
15. Transfer the pan juices to a saucepan, and boil until thick, about 10 minutes or so.
16. Serve the ham with the pan juices.
