Ingredients:
\n1 (8 1\/2 pound) cooked bone-in ham (shank end)
\n40 whole cloves
\n1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
\n\u00bc cup bourbon whiskey
\n1\u2009\u00bd teaspoons freshly ground black pepper<\/p>\n
Directions:
\nPreheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).<\/p>\n
Remove skin and excess fat from ham, leaving a fat layer about 1\/4-inch thick. Score ham in a diamond pattern with a sharp knife. Push cloves into the center of the scored diamond shapes. Place ham with cut side down into a roasting pan.<\/p>\n
Bake ham in the preheated oven until an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat, not touching bone, reads 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), about 2 hours.<\/p>\n
Combine brown sugar, whiskey, and black pepper in a bowl until glaze is smooth.<\/p>\n
Raise oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).<\/p>\n
Baste ham with 1\/3 the whiskey glaze. Return to oven and bake until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), basting ham with whiskey glaze every 10 minutes. Cover ham loosely with a tent of aluminum foil if ham browns too quickly.<\/p>\n
Let ham rest for 15 minutes before carving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
