    Main-Pork/Ham: Country Baked Ham with Bourbon Molasses Glaze

    Source of Recipe

    Cheryl Smith

    List of Ingredients

    12 lb smoked ham -- (12 to 14)
    whole cloves

    GLAZE:
    1 cup bourbon
    2 cups molasses
    1 tablespoon peppercorns

    Recipe

    Remove skin from ham, leaving 1/4 to 1/2-inch of fat on ham. Score the fat into diamond shapes and insert cloves in a decorative manner. In a saucepan, bring bourbon, molasses, and peppercorns to a simmer, to cook off the alcohol ñ be careful, the alcohol will flame a little. Allow to cool. Put ham on a rack in a baking pan, add 1-inch of water, baste with the glaze and bake in a preheated 350ºF oven. Depending on weight of the ham, the time will vary. It will take approximately 20 minutes per pound. Bake for 3 hours covered and last 1/2 hour uncovered, basting every 20 minutes with glaze.
