Bourbon And Praline Ham


It's impossible to describe the flavor of this ham. I use dark brown sugar when i do this and real maple syrup. This is my easter ham, christmas ham and, if i do a ham for thanksgiving, it's my thanksgiving ham. The marinating time is included in the preparation time. The ham itself is really simple and easy to prepare.

Steps


Score ham.
Place ham in a large sealable plastic bag and pour bourbon over ham.
Marinate for 2 to 3 hours.
Pour off bourbon , reserving for later , and bake ham at 325 degrees for 2 hours.
Melt butter.
Stir in reserved bourbon marinade , maple syrup , brown sugar and chopped pecans.
Bring to a boil.
Pour glaze over ham and brush with a pastry brush.
Decorate with pecan halves and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
