The Cook Stove / Main Dish




HOME STYLE GLAZED HAM

1 (12 lb.) fully cooked ham
¾ cup of whiskey
1½ cups of dark brown sugar
1 tbsp. dry mustard
About ¾ cup of whole cloves
1 (11oz.) can of mandarin orange sections, drained

Place ham fat side up on a rack in a large shallow roasting pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 2 hours or until a meat thermometer inserted into the fleshiest part of the ham registers 130 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.  
Cool the ham slightly. Cut away the rind with a sharp knife. Score the ham by cutting through the fat lengthwise and crosswise at one inch intervals. Return the ham to the oven and raise the temperature to 450 degrees. with a pastry brush spread ½ cup of whiskey on all sides of the ham.
Add the rest of the whiskey to the sugar and mustard. pat it into the scored fat. Stud the meat at scored intersections with the whole cloves. Arrange the mandarin orange sections decoratively on top of the ham, securing them with toothpicks.  
Baste the ham with drippings from the pan; bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a glaze forms. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with parsley and additional orange slices.
Serves 12 to 14 people.
