BOURBON HONEY GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan, heat bourbon, honey, molasses, and marmalade over low heat for 15 minutes or until reduced by half, stirring occasionally. (When measuring honey and molasses, spray measuring cup with nonstick cooking spray to keep measurements accurate.) Set aside.
• With a sharp knife, cut a diamond pattern on the fatty part of the ham. Stud whole cloves in each diamond, at points where lines cross. Spread half of the bourbon glaze over the ham and roast for 30 minutes, uncovered. Baste occasionally with remaining glaze and continue to roast for another 15 minutes.

MAPLE ORANGE BOURBON GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the ham on a roasting rack in a roasting pan with the fat-side up. Use a small knife to lightly score the fat in a crosshatch pattern, taking care not to cut into the meat. Add about 1 cup of water to the bottom of the pan. Bake the ham for 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze. Combine the marmalade, bourbon, maple syrup, butter, cinnamon and cloves in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often, until the glaze is thick and syrupy, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Brush the ham with about half of the glaze and return to the oven. Roast, glazing the ham every 15 to 20 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches about 130 degrees F, 45 minutes to 1 hour more. (The ham will get very brown, but if the glaze starts to burn, tent with a piece of foil greased with cooking spray. Let rest, tented with a piece of greased foil, for about 10 minutes before carving.

GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of oven and preheat to 325°F.
• Using a sharp knife, score the fat covering the ham in a 3/4-inch-wide diamond pattern (do not cut into the meat). Place the ham in a 10-by-14-inch roasting pan and add 1 cup water. Roast the ham for 2 hours.
• While the ham is roasting, prepare the glaze: In a heavy, medium saucepan over moderately low heat, combine 1 cup orange juice, brown sugar, and bourbon. Bring to a simmer and continue simmering for 10 minutes. Add the guava or apple jelly, shallots, allspice, and cloves, and continue simmering until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Add the orange zest and the remaining 1 cup orange juice, and bring to a boil. Continue boiling until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the orange slices and fresh ginger, and cook until the orange slices are tender, about 2 minutes.
• Once the ham has been in the oven for two hours, drape the glazed orange slices over the ham, securing them with toothpicks, and brush the ham and oranges with about 1/2 cup of glaze, reserving the remainder for serving. Continue roasting the ham until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F, about 30 minutes.
• To Serve:
• Remove the toothpicks from the ham and arrange the orange slices on a platter. Slice the ham and arrange on top of the oranges. Warm the remaining glaze and serve alongside.
