Method

Preparation

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

2

Prepare the Ham

Place the bone-in ham in a large roasting pan, fat side up. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, about 1/4 inch deep.

Make the Glaze

3

Combine Ingredients

In a medium saucepan, combine whole-grain mustard, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and water. Stir until smooth.

4

Heat the Glaze

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sugar has dissolved and the glaze thickens slightly.

Glaze and Bake the Ham

5

Apply the Glaze

Brush half of the prepared glaze over the scored surface of the ham.

6

Bake the Ham

Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1.5 to 2 hours, basting every 30 minutes with the remaining glaze.

7

Finish and Serve

Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow the glaze to caramelize. Once the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C), take the ham out of the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing. Garnish with optional fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs, if desired.
