BOURBON, PINEAPPLE AND ORANGE GLAZED HOLIDAY HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Using a sharp knife, score the ham into a diamond pattern about 1/4-inch deep and 1-inch apart.
• Stud the ham with whole cloves in the center of each diamond.
• Place ham fat side up in a shallow roasting pan (for easy clean-up line pan with aluminum foil, or use a heavy-duty disposable aluminum pan).
• Bake ham for 2 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, stir together the brown sugar, bourbon, orange marmalade, crushed pineapple, and prepared mustard. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved.
• Remove ham from the oven.
• Spoon half of the glaze/sauce over the ham.
• Decorate ham with pineapple rings, using a few toothpicks to hold ring in place. Place a cherry in the center of each ring, and attach it with a toothpick.
• Return ham to the oven and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes.
• Transfer ham to a platter and allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving (be sure to remove all toothpicks).
• Pass the remaining sauce at the table.
