To elevate the dish even further, we've included three additional glaze recipes that offer unique flavor twists. The Apricot-Mustard Glaze adds a touch of sweetness and tang, while the Cranberry-Port Glaze brings a festive flair with its vibrant color and fruity notes. If you prefer a spicy kick, the Chipotle-Honey Glaze delivers a subtle heat that balances the richness of the ham.

- In a small skillet, cook parsnips in a small amount of boiling water for 5 minutes; drain. Arrange parsnips and onions around ham. Pour glaze over ham and vegetables. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes more or until thermometer registers 140°F and vegetables are tender, spooning pan juices over ham and vegetables once. Remove roasting pan from oven.
- Transfer ham and vegetables to a serving platter, spooning some of the pan juices over vegetables. Makes 14 servings.
- Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare glaze as directed; cool. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Before glazing the ham, transfer the glaze to a small saucepan. Cover and cook until heated through. Pour over ham and vegetables as directed.
- *Note: To peel boiling onions, in a medium saucepan, cook onions in boiling water for 30 seconds; drain. Rinse with cold water; drain again. When cool enough to handle, cut a small slice from the root end of each onion. Squeeze from the other end to remove the onion from the peel.
GUINNESS BAKED HAM
Based on a recipe from the 1992 March/April Cooking Light magazine. The article claims that corned beef and cabbage is not traditional in Ireland for the St. Patrick's Day holiday:... "Guinness Baked Ham is more likely to be part of a tradtional Irish menu. It's basted with Guinness Stout, a creamy brew from Dublin."

GUINNESS GLAZE
This is as close as I think I can get to the Guinness Glaze they use at Bennigan's. Put it on any meat when grilling.

Tips:
- Choose the right ham: A bone-in ham will give you more flavor than a boneless ham. Look for a ham that is at least 10 pounds so that you have plenty of leftovers.
- Score the fat: This will help the glaze to penetrate the ham and give it a crispy crust. Use a sharp knife to make shallow diagonal cuts across the top of the ham.
- Use a flavorful glaze: The glaze is what will give your ham its delicious flavor. There are many different recipes for Guinness glaze, so feel free to experiment until you find one that you like.
- Cook the ham slowly: This will help to ensure that the ham is cooked through without drying out. Cook the ham at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham reads 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the ham rest: Once the ham is cooked, let it rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the ham, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Guinness glazed ham is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With its sweet, savory, and slightly boozy flavor, this ham is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a special dish to serve, give Guinness glazed ham a try. You won't be disappointed!
