        April Recipe

        Brown Sugar Bourbon Pineapple Glazed Ham

        Ingredients:
        • 1 (7- to 8-pound) boneless ham, such as Snake River Farms
        • 3/4 cup bourbon
        • 2 cups packed dark brown sugar
        • 1 Tbsp. dry mustard
        • 3/4 cup pineapple juice
        • 1 (15.25-ounce) can crushed pineapple
        Directions:
        1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Place an oven-safe rack in a rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan. Pat ham dry. Use a paring knife to score a 1/4-inch-deep crosshatch pattern; transfer to prepared pan. Bake until the internal temperature on an instant-read thermometer reads 125°F, 2 hours and 15 minutes to 2 hours and 30 minutes (10 to 12 minutes per pound). 
        2. Meanwhile, combine bourbon, sugar, mustard, and pineapple juice in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until glaze is reduced by half and coats the back of a spoon, between 25 and 45 minutes. 
        3. Remove ham from oven. Increase oven to 400°F. Brush 1/3 cup of glaze across the top of the ham, being sure to cover the surface and get into the scores. Roast until glaze is caramelized, 20 to 24 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before slicing.
        4. Add crushed pineapple to the remaining glaze. Simmer over medium-low heat until sauce is warmed through, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve sliced ham with sauce alongside.
