Baked Ham With Bourbon Glaze - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup honey
    1/2 cup molasses
    1/2 cup Bourbon
    1/4 cup orange juice
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    1 half ham, smoked, 6-8 lbs
Preparation
    Microwave honey and molasses in a 1 quart glass dish at high 1 minute. Whisk to blend. Whisk in bourbon, juice, and mustard.
    Remove the skin and fat from the ham. Place ham in a lightly greased 13x9 inch pan. Make 1/4 inch cuts in ham in a diamond pattern. Pour glaze over ham.
    Bake on the lower oven rack at 350\u00b0 for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 140\u00b0, basting every 15 minutes with glaze.
    Remove from pan, reserving drippings. Cover ham, and chill, if desired. Chill reserved drippings.
    Remove and discard fat from the drippings. Bring drippings to a boil in a small saucepan. Serve warm with the ham.
