Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack in lowest position. Line a large roasting pan with aluminum foil; place roasting rack in pan.
- With a sharp knife, trim fat, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick layer. Lightly score fat in a diamond pattern (do not cut into meat). Place ham, fat side up, on rack; roast 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine jam and mustard (they can be mixed and refrigerated up to 1 day ahead). Transfer 1/2 cup mixture to a small bowl to glaze ham. Set aside saucepan with remaining mixture.
- After 1 hour, brush ham with glaze. Repeat every 15 minutes until brown and shiny, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part, avoiding bone, registers 130 degrees, about 1 hour more (if glaze starts to burn, tent ham with buttered foil). Discard unused glaze. Remove ham from oven; cover loosely with buttered foil to keep warm. Temperature will then rise another 5 to 10 degrees.
- Bring jam mixture in saucepan to a boil. Carve ham, reserving bone and 2 cups of meat for Split Pea Soup. Serve with sauce.

Tips:
- To ensure the ham is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The ham is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C) for a medium-rare ham, 145°F (63°C) for a medium ham, or 150°F (66°C) for a well-done ham.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the ham's doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the ham. If the juices run clear, the ham is done.
- For a more flavorful ham, let it marinate in the mustard-apricot glaze for at least 30 minutes before baking.
- If you want a crispier ham, brush the glaze on the ham during the last 15 minutes of baking.
- Serve the ham with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or green beans.
Conclusion:
Mustard-apricot glazed ham is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any special occasion. The ham is tender and juicy, and the glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
