Yield Allow 1/3 pound per person

Number Of Ingredients 9

I. Ham:
1 10-to-15 pound whole ham, or 1 5-to-7 pound half of a ham
Glaze:
1 1/3 cups packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
3 tablespoons cider vinegar, prune juice, wine, or ham drippings
Whole cloves
Decorate with: pineapple rings studded with cranberries and stars cut from preserved orange peel, optional
Garnish with: Slices of jellied cranberry sauce topped with thin orange or pineapple slices, optional

Steps:

  • Ham labeled "Cook Before Eating"
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place the ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. For a whole 10- to 15-pound ham, allow 18 to 20 minutes per pound; for a half--5 to 7 pounds--about 20 minutes per pound; or for a shank or butt portion weighing 3 to 4 pounds, about 35 minutes to the pound. In all cases, cook uncovered until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. For an attractive, quick finish, remove the ham from the oven about 30 minutes before it is done and glaze as directed below.
  • II. Ham labeled "Fully Cooked" or "Ready to Eat"
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. To heat the ham, place it on a rack in a shallow roasting pan, and bake uncovered. For a whole ham, allow 15 to 18 minutes to the pound; for a half, 18 to 24 minutes per pound. The ham will be ready when the internal temperature reaches 140°F. To glaze the ham, remove it from the oven about 30 minutes before it is done, and increase the oven heat to 425°F. Remove all the rind but a collar around the shank bone. Slash the fat in the top of the ham in a diamond pattern, and cover the surface with brown sugar, dry mustard moistened with cider vinegar, prune juice, wine or ham drippings.
  • Stud the fat at the intersections of the diamonds with whole cloves. Or decorate with alternating half pineapple rings studded with cranberries and stars cut from preserved orange peel.
  • Return the ham to the oven, reduce the oven heat to 325°F again, and cook about 30 minutes. Place on a platter. Garnish with: Slices of jellied cranberry sauce topped with thin orange or pineapple slices.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ham: Look for a ham that is fully cooked and bone-in. The bone helps to keep the ham moist and flavorful.
  • Preheat your oven: Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you put the ham in. This will help to ensure that the ham cooks evenly.
  • Cover the ham: Cover the ham with foil during cooking. This will help to keep the ham moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer: Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the ham to check the internal temperature. The ham is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the ham rest: Let the ham rest for 15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the ham, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meat.

Cooking a Members Mark ham is a simple and easy process. By following the tips and instructions in this article, you can ensure that your ham turns out moist, flavorful, and delicious. Whether you are cooking a ham for a holiday meal or a weeknight dinner, Members Mark hams are a great option.
