BOURBON-GLAZED HAM



Bourbon-Glazed Ham image

Using a bone-in ham is important because bone intensifies the flavor of the meat. A bourbon-glazed ham is an Easter dinner classic. Each serving should include a bit of crust; its sweetness complements the saltiness of the meat.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 fully cooked smoked bone-in ham (about 7 pounds), not spiral cut
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons bourbon, cider, or water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Trim all but 1/4 inch fat from the ham, and score remaining fat in 3/4-inch diamonds, just deep enough to reach the meat without cutting into it. Place ham, fat side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
  • In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, mustard, and bourbon. Brush 1/4 of the glaze over the ham. Bake the ham, brushing with remaining glaze every 30 minutes, until heated through (140 degrees on a meat thermometer), about 2 hours.
  • Let ham stand about 15 minutes before carving. Using a knife with a long blade, carve downward to the bone. Run the knife horizontally through the ham, along the top of the bone, to release the slices.

BAKED HAM WITH BOURBON GLAZE



Baked Ham With Bourbon Glaze image

This is a classic Southern recipe for Easter or Christmas. The sweetness of the honey and molasses is cut by the bourbon and orange juice, making for a perfect glaze. Once the ham is cool and chilled, be sure to remove the fat from the drippings to save and serve with the leftovers...that is one of the best parts of the recipe!

Categories     Ham

Time 2h40m

Yield 12-14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup honey
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup Bourbon
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 half ham, smoked, 6-8 lbs

Steps:

  • Microwave honey and molasses in a 1 quart glass dish at high 1 minute. Whisk to blend. Whisk in bourbon, juice, and mustard.
  • Remove the skin and fat from the ham. Place ham in a lightly greased 13x9 inch pan. Make 1/4 inch cuts in ham in a diamond pattern. Pour glaze over ham.
  • Bake on the lower oven rack at 350° for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 140°, basting every 15 minutes with glaze.

  • Remove and discard fat from the drippings. Bring drippings to a boil in a small saucepan. Serve warm with the ham.

Tips:

  • To ensure a perfectly cooked ham, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For a fully cooked ham, the internal temperature should reach 140°F (60°C).
  • For a crispy and flavorful glaze, brush the ham with the bourbon glaze every 15-20 minutes during the last 30 minutes of baking.
  • If you don't have bourbon, you can substitute it with another type of dark liquor such as whiskey or rum.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of brown sugar and Dijon mustard in the glaze depending on your personal preference.
  • Serve the baked ham with your favorite sides such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
