Tavern Baked Ham Recipe

A spiral cut ham is preferred to allow the flaver to penetrate the ham meat better. For a 12-15 lb. ham, set the oven to 325 bake and cook 15 minutes per lb.

Score the fat side of the ham and insert cloves for added flavor.

Pour 1 can of beer into the bottom of a broiler pan under the ham rack. Bake the ham fat-side up, uncovered.

About 30-60 minutes before finished, glaze the ham with the following mixture:

1/2 cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp flour
1 Tbsp brown mustard
Use sautern wine or vinegar to make a batter similar in consistency of pancake batter.

Spread over ham and sprinkle cinammon-sugar over the ham. Continue baking and remove cloves.
