Ingredients
- 1 smoked ham (New York State)12 to 14 pounds
- Cloves
Glaze:
- 1 cup bourbon
- 2 cups molasses
- 1 tablespoon peppercorns
Directions
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 -- 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 350 degree 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.

This recipe is great. Even better, it's really simple to make. This was my first ham, and I think it was a good choice. I did add about a cup of brown sugar to the glaze, which I think helped.

I made this for a Holiday party I had, everyone loved it. Had people going back for seconds and thirds.. Thou I must admit when I was making it The smell was overwhelming, i got a little scared it wouldn't turn our well. Granted I'm not a big Bourbon fan so that might have been the problem. Needless to say It turned out great, and tasted great.
