Maple Bourbon Glazed Ham
Ham is literally the EASIEST main dish I think you can make. It’s already cooked. All you are doing is warming it up and adding some flavor. It takes about 2 hours, but there is less than 10 minutes of hands on work. This sounds amazing on Christmas when you have a million other dishes to prepare. However, that means it is essential that you get a quality ham. I use a kurobata ham from Snake River Farms. It is absolutely incredible and I highly recommend it!
Watch the video to learn how to make this ham. We want to cover it in foil and steam it until it reaches 100 degrees internal temperature. Then, we glaze it with a delicious maple bourbon glaze that we whip up while the hame is steaming. Bake it uncovered for another 30 minutes until it is nice and crispy on the outside! Since it is already cooked, we are only cooking it until it reaches 120-125 degrees internal temperature. Most recipes call for cooking it to 140 degrees, but that will result in a dry ham! Don't forget to let it rest for about 15 minutes before slicing!
Here's a quick video just to see how delicious it looks!
