Category: Glaze Recipes

Makes 24 to 36 servings

Ingredients:

1 Jones fully cooked partially boned or bone-in ham, 12 to 14 pounds
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoon Bourbon or whiskey
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Preparation:

Heat oven to 300 degrees F. Unwrap ham and place in a large roasting pan lined with heavy-duty aluminum foil. If desired, use a sharp knife to score surface of ham into diamond shapes. Combine brown sugar, bourbon and soy sauce; mix well. Spread half of mixture evenly over top of ham (glaze will melt and spread as it cooks). Bake 1 hour; spread remaining brown sugar mixture over top of ham. Continue to bake until internal temperature of ham reaches 140 degrees F, about 1-1/2 hours. Transfer ham to carving board; let stand 5 minutes before carving into slices.
