Equipment
- Roasting Pan with Rack
Ingredients
- 8 pound bone-in ham
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp chopped thyme
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- In a small bowl, melt the butter and thyme and set it off to the side.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Position the middle rack lower to fit a roasting pan and ham.
- Score the top of the ham in a crosshatch pattern, but don't cut fully into the meat.
- Place the ham on a rack sitting in a roasting pan.
- Cover the ham with tin foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, vinegar, spices, Worcestershire sauce and the thyme butter you made earlier.
- The glaze can sit until the ham is finished cooking.
- Open the oven and remove the foil. Brush half of the glaze on the ham and bake again, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
- If there is no liquid at the bottom of the pan, add 1 cup of water so the glaze doesn't burn.
- After 15 minutes, brush the rest of the glaze on the ham and bake again for another 15 minutes until it's golden brown.
