Photo: Bourbon Honey Glazed Ham Recipe
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup bourbon or whiskey
- 1 cup clover honey
- 1/3 cup molasses
- 1/2 cup 100 percent fruit orange marmalade
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 1 (5-pound) whole bone-in smoked ham, fully cooked, unsliced
- 1/8 cup whole cloves
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a medium saucepan, heat bourbon, honey, molasses, and marmalade over low heat for 15 minutes or until reduced by half, stirring occasionally. (When measuring honey and molasses, spray measuring cup with nonstick cooking spray to keep measurements accurate.) Set aside.
With a sharp knife, cut a diamond pattern on the fatty part of the ham. Stud whole cloves in each diamond, at points where lines cross. Spread half of the bourbon glaze over the ham and roast for 30 minutes, uncovered. Baste occasionally with remaining glaze and continue to roast for another 15 minutes. Let ham stand for 20 minutes before slicing.

I made this over 5 years ago and got rave reviews... after getting so many requests to repeat this I served it again... you guessed it, rave reviews! Both times I have served this I got numerous requests for the recipe. Subtracted one star because I had to cover it to prevent burning, which is not in the recipe, then cook uncovered for a while, so I got confused as to how long to cook. Luckily the ham I bought was fully cooked so I wasn't too worried. Also, I added a 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the pan, but I'm guessing you don't have to if your pan is appropriately sized for your ham, mine was a little big.

This glaze was a huge hit with my crew. And believe me when I say they aren't easy to please.

Oh My Goodness; The glazed is very tasty. I made the ham a day before Christmas and I had to have a slice. The aroma and taste is amazing.
