Serving Size: 12

Cooking Time: 90 minutes

Ingredients

• 5 Pounds (lb) boneless ham, marinated
• 0.33 Cups bourbon whiskey
• 0.5 Cups brown sugar, packed
• 8 Ounces (oz) can crushed pineapple in juice
• 0.5 Cups honey
• 3 Cloves garlic, minced
• 1.5 Cups water
• 8 Ounces (oz) can pineapple rings

Steps

1. Score the surface of the ham, creating diamond shapes about 0.5 inches deep. Place the ham in a large resealable bag.
2. Add bourbon, brown sugar, crushed pineapple, honey, and minced garlic to the bag. Seal and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, turning the bag occasionally to ensure even marination.
3. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
4. Transfer the ham and marinade to a large baking dish. Pour the water into the dish to keep the ham moist during baking.
5. Secure the pineapple rings around the surface of the ham using toothpicks.
6. Bake in the preheated oven, basting occasionally with the sauce in the pan, until the internal temperature of the ham reaches 165 degrees F (95 degrees C), approximately 90 to 105 minutes.
7. Remove from the oven and let the ham rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the remaining glaze from the pan.

Enjoy this delightful blend of sweet and savory flavors that will elevate your holiday meal to a new level of deliciousness!
