Honey-and-Rye-Glazed Ham

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk rye whiskey, honey, molasses, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a medium bowl.

   Step 2

   Set ham on a rack in a large roasting pan and pour in 2 cups water. Score fat in a crosshatch pattern, cutting about ½” deep. Brush ham with rye whiskey mixture and roast, basting every 20 minutes with pan juices and tenting with foil if browning too quickly, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of ham registers 135°, 1½–2 hours.

   Step 3

   Transfer ham to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with pan juices.
