Title: Orange Bourbon Ham
Categories: Ham, Alcohol, Fruit
Yield: 16 Servings
12 lb Smoked cooked ham
1/2 c Orange juice
1/2 c Bourbon
2 c Brown sugar; packed
1 tb Dry mustard
If ham has rind, place on rack in roasting pan. If ham has no rind,
wrap with foil and place on rack in roasting pan. Bake at
325 degrees F until meat thermometer registers between 130 and 140
degrees F, about 2 hours. Remove from oven. If ham has rind, when
cool enough to handle, cut away rind, leaving 1/4-inch layer of
fat. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Combine orange
juice and bourbon in small skillet. Ignite carefully with long
match to burn off alcohol. Reduce over high heat to 3/4 cup. Mix
1/4 cup of orange juice-bourbon mixture with brown sugar and dry
mustard to form paste. Brush ham with remaining 1/2 cup liquid.
Pat brown-sugar mixture on just on top ham. Bake at 450 degrees
until sugar has melted and begun to glisten, about 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool 15 minutes before slicing.
