baked ham

Ingredients

• 1 (8-10 pound) fully cooked ham, bone-in
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
2. In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and garlic powder.
3. Place ham in a large roasting pan.
4. Spread half of the brown sugar glaze evenly over the ham.
5. Cover the roasting pan tightly with a lid or aluminum foil. Bake for 2-3 hours, or until internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C).
6. Uncover the ham and continue to bake for another 30-60 minutes, basting with the remaining glaze every 15-20 minutes, until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
7. Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes before carving.

Notes

• For a crispier glaze, you can broil the ham for the last 5-10 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
• To keep the ham moist during baking, you can add 1/2 cup of chicken broth to the roasting pan.
• This ham is delicious sliced and served with scalloped potatoes or green beans.
• Store leftover ham in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
