1 (10-ounce) jar red currant jelly |
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar |

Directions:
1. Combine jelly and next 4 ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring constantly, until jelly melts and mixture is smooth. Set jelly mixture aside.

3. Place ham in a lightly greased roasting pan, and pour jelly mixture evenly over ham.
4. Bake on lower oven rack at 350° for 2 hours and 30 minutes, basting with pan juices every 15 to 20 minutes. Remove ham from oven; let stand 20 minutes before carving.
