Ingredients
- 4500 gr. whole bone-in ham
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce
- 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Method
- Unwrap/remove all plastic from ham and place cut side down on a baking rack in a roasting pan.
- Lightly score any fatty areas with a knife in a diamond pattern.
- Wrap pan with foil and bake at 165 °C for 40′ per kilo, or about 3 hours for a 4500 grams ham.
- Meanwhile, stir glaze ingredients together in a small saute pan and bring to a boil; remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Glaze should be amber colored, have the consistency of honey and not be grainy at all.
- 30′ before the ham is done, remove from the oven and take off the foil.
- Use a carving knife to trim away any fat from the meat before brushing on the glaze.
- Brush half the glaze over the skin of the ham and return to oven without foil, bake 15′.
- Then brush remaining glaze on ham and bake another 15 – 25′ or until glaze sets and begins to caramelize.
- Wait 15′ before carving.
