SWEET BOURBON HAM
My dad made this ham for Christmas about 15 years ago, and we loved it. I haven't made a different ham since and haven't loved one as much.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Remove skin and excess fat from ham, leaving a fat layer about 1/4-inch thick. Score ham in a diamond pattern with a sharp knife. Push cloves into the center of the scored diamond shapes. Place ham with cut side down into a roasting pan.
- Bake ham in the preheated oven until an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat, not touching bone, reads 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), about 2 hours.
- Combine brown sugar, whiskey, and black pepper in a bowl until glaze is smooth.
- Raise oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Baste ham with 1/3 the whiskey glaze. Return to oven and bake until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), basting ham with whiskey glaze every 10 minutes. Cover ham loosely with a tent of aluminum foil if ham browns too quickly.
- Let ham rest for 15 minutes before carving.

[email protected]Good recipe overall. The ham was juicy and the glaze was tasty, but I found the cooking time to be a bit too long. I would recommend checking the ham's internal temperature before the full cooking time to prevent it from drying out.

[email protected]This recipe was a disaster. The ham was dry and tough, and the glaze was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

[email protected]This recipe was easy to follow and the ham turned out great. The only thing I would change is to use a little less brown sugar in the glaze. It was a bit too sweet for my taste.
