Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Line a large baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper or nonstick aluminum foil. Place a 4.5-inch diameter bowl upside down in the center of the baking dish and use it as a guide (it will be the center, empty area of your wreath). Arrange triangular sections of the crescent dough on the parchment in a circle around the bowl with the long points facing outward as the "rays" and the wide bases in the center with the edges overlapping. Brush the jalapeño jelly on the dough. Remove the bowl.
- In a small bowl, mix the ham, Gruyere and pepper jack, then layer the mixture on the dough, creating a ring around the center of the circle. Pull the points of dough from the outer edge over the filling and tuck under the center rim of the dough circle. The filling will show and that's ok! Top with jalapeño slices all around.
- Bake, rotating halfway through, until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before slicing to serve.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 325°F. Spray shallow roasting pan or 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray. Place ham, fat side up, on rack in shallow pan. Score outside of ham in diamond pattern; insert cloves into diamond shapes. (To make inserting cloves easier, use small paring knife or toothpick to make small holes before inserting cloves.) Insert ovenproof meat thermometer in thickest part of ham. Bake 1 hour.
- In small bowl, stir together brown sugar, mustard and bourbon. Brush 1/2 of brown sugar mixture evenly over ham.
- Bake 30 minutes. Brush with remaining brown sugar mixture. Bake 40 to 50 minutes longer or until thermometer reads 140°F. If pan drippings start to burn, add up to 1/4 cup water to pan.
- Remove ham from oven; cover with foil and let stand 10 to 15 minutes for easier carving.

Steps:
- Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes about 1/2-inch deep. Place the ham in a large, resealable bag. Add the bourbon, brown sugar, crushed pineapple, honey, and garlic to the bag; refrigerate at least 8 hours, turning the bag over several times while marinating.

Tips:
- Use a flavorful ham: A good quality, smoked ham will give your glaze a richer flavor.
- Choose a good bourbon: A high-quality bourbon will add a nice depth of flavor to the glaze. Try using a sweeter bourbon for a more caramelized flavor, or a spicier bourbon for a more complex flavor.
- Add some sweetness: The apples and brown sugar in this glaze add a nice sweetness that balances out the savory flavors of the ham. You can also add a touch of honey or maple syrup for a more intense sweetness.
- Use fresh apples: Fresh apples will give your glaze a brighter flavor and a more crisp texture.
- Cook the glaze until it thickens: This will help the glaze adhere to the ham and give it a nice glossy finish.
- Baste the ham frequently: Basting the ham with the glaze will help it stay moist and flavorful throughout the cooking process.
