If your ham is larger (say, in the 14–16-pound range), it will take about an hour longer to get hot. Learn how to make the ham in this video.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    20 Servings

Ingredients

½ cup bitter orange marmalade
¼ cup honey, pure maple syrup, or light brown sugar
1 tablespoon adobo sauce, Aleppo pepper, or spicy Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons bourbon, Cognac, or dark rum
1 12–14-pound whole cured, smoked, bone-in ham

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk marmalade, honey, adobo, and bourbon in a medium bowl.

    Step 2

    Place ham on a rack in a large roasting pan and add 2 cups water (this keeps drippings from scorching). Score fat in a crosshatch pattern, cutting about ½" deep.

    Step 3

    Brush ham with glaze and roast, basting with pan juices every 20 minutes and tenting with foil if needed, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of ham registers 135°, 1½–2 hours.

    Step 4

    Let rest 10 minutes or more before carving.
