Cooking Instructions
- 1
Position a rack in the lower half of the oven to make room for the ham and preheat to 325°F.
- 2
Starting at 1 side and working horizontally across the top and upper sides, shallowly score the ham with a sharp knife in 1 inch sections.
- 3
Repeat vertically down the top and upper sides of the ham.
- 4
Transfer the ham to a nonstick or foil lined roasting pan.
- 5
Cook about 20 minutes per pound, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham (not touching the bone) registers 130°F, about 2 hours and 20 minutes total.
- 6
Meanwhile in a small saucepan, whisk together the cherry preserves, brown sugar, lemon juice, pepper, thyme, and salt.
- 7
Bring to a simmer over medium high heat and cook until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
- 8
When the ham is cooked, remove it from the oven and, using a pastry brush, carefully coat the ham on the top and sides with the cherry mixture.
- 9
Return to the oven and turn up the heat to 425°F.
- 10
Cook until the glaze is sizzling and slightly browned, about 8 minutes.
- 11
Remove from the oven and let the ham rest 15 to 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

Honey Glazed Ham Honey Glazed Ham
I loooooove ham. But up until recently, I have never made my own ham. I always thought that it was hard. Plus, I did not want to use the glaze that they provided with the ham. I looked around at different glaze recipes, but none of them appealed to me. After some searching, I decided to make my own recipe.The most important and first thing to do when using this recipe, throw out the glaze packet that they provide with the ham.Enjoy!

Cherry Dr. Pepper Glazed City Ham Cherry Dr. Pepper Glazed City Ham
I've done hams before in the traditional honey/brown sugar/pineapple syrup sweet glaze, a cherry-portglaze, and a "city" ham with mustard and gingersnap crust. I wanted to take what I liked from each recipe.I kept the cherries from the cherry-port glaze, but lost the port, and added a bit of wine, along with the spice of whole ground mustard from the city ham, and a bit of brown sugar to help make the glaze syrupy, I added a good bit of Dr. Pepper to the glaze. The mustard kept the ham from turning that predictable salty-sweet flavor, and gave it a bit of bite. The cherry/merlot/Dr. Pepper glaze reduced wonderfully into a thick sticky mess, which stuck to the ham, and began to caramelize.I've done this recipe both in the oven and on the grill. I'd suggest the grill, but have kept the oven instructions too. O make this with my soux vide, but only because it's easier, this is completely doable with just your sink hot water and I've included directions incase you dont have a soux vide.
