Honey Glazed Ham
Hams are available both fresh or smoked. If the label says "cook thoroughly" that means you'll need to cook it to an internal temperature of 120. If it's already cooked, it will be labeled as such and all you need to do is reheat it. If you have a pre-cooked ham, you can skip to the glaze part of this recipe!

Ingredients
- 1 smoked ham* boneless or bone-in
- 1 cup honey*
- ¼ cup coarse mustard
- ¼ cup brown sugar dark preferred
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
Instructions
Bake the Ham (if uncooked)
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- On a large sheet pan or a roasting pan lined in three layers of aluminum foil, which you will wrap the ham in, place the ham face down. Cover completely with the foil, and bake for 120 minutes (2 hours).
Glaze
- In a saucepan, make the glaze: Combine the mustard, sugar and butter. Heat over medium-low heat until combined, then stir in the honey. Turn off the heat, and let sit for 10 minutes.
- When the ham has finished its first bake, take it out of the oven and unwrap.
- Turn up the heat of the oven to 425°F.
- Brush the glaze over the uncovered ham, and place in the oven to bake for an additional hour (to 1.25 hours). Every 15 minutes, open the oven and liberally coat the ham in glaze as it bakes.
- After you've glazed the ham 4 times and baked a final time, remove the ham from the oven.
- Let cool for 15 minutes, then carve and serve warm!
