Tips:

Choose the right ham. For a baked ham, choose a bone-in, fully cooked ham. This type of ham is already cooked, so you just need to heat it through.
Score the ham. Scoring the ham helps the glaze to penetrate the meat and creates a crispy crust.
Use a variety of glazes. There are endless possibilities when it comes to ham glazes. You can use a simple glaze made with brown sugar and mustard, or you can get creative and use a glaze made with fruits, spices, or herbs.
Cook the ham to perfection. The internal temperature of the ham should reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
Let the ham rest. Once the ham is cooked, let it rest for 15 minutes before carving. This helps the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Baking a ham is a delicious and easy way to feed a crowd. With a few simple tips, you can create a ham that is moist, flavorful, and sure to impress your guests. So next time you're planning a holiday meal or a special occasion dinner, consider baking a ham.
