Ingredients
- 1 7-pound smoked fresh ham $13.23
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar $0.18
- 1/2 cup apple jelly $0.69
- 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger $0.12
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic $0.03
- 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard $0.16
- 3 tablespoon apple cider vinegar $0.09
Preparation
Baking Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Place ham in a roasting pan fat-side up.
Score fat with a criss-cross pattern and cover with foil.
Cook ham for about 1½ hours or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reads 145°F.
In the meantime, in a small saucepan over medium heat stir together remaining ingredients for glaze along with 2 tablespoons water.
Bring to a simmer and cook for about 2 minutes until it has a smooth syrupy consistency.
Remove ham from oven.
Pour off liquid in pan, generously coat ham with half of the glaze.
Place in oven and bake an additional 20-30 minutes, halfway through basting with remaining glaze.
Remove from oven and allow ham to rest for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
