Bourbon and Maple Syrup Ham

Ingredients

Ham

  • 1 bone-in pre-cooked ham
  • 1/2 cup apple juice
  • 1 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 cup water

Glaze for the Ham

  • 1/4 cup apple juice
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325F.
  • Trim the excess fat from the ham, down to 1/4 - 1/2" thick, then score it in a diamond pattern.
  • Put the ham cut side down (fat side up) in a pan and pour the apple juice, cloves, and water over it. Bake 2 hours, uncovered.
  • Mix the glaze together and pour over the ham and bake another 45 minutes, basting now and then.

Notes

The ham was super easy and super delicious. I got the recipe from The Pat Conroy Cookbook, which is full of fun stories about his life as well as good recipes.
