Ingredients

1 (5-7-pound) ham, bone-in, fully-cooked
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
1 tablespoon cider vinegar, plus more, to taste

Directions

Step 1 -Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

Step 2 -Place the ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.

Step 3 -Using a sharp knife, score the surface of the ham with 1/4-inch-deep cuts in a diamond pattern.

Step 4 -Cover the ham and bake it until it reaches an internal temperature of 130 degrees F, about 1 hour 30 minutes-2 hours.

Step 5 -In a small bowl, add the brown sugar, the mustard, and 1 tablespoon of the vinegar and stir until a thick paste forms. Add the extra vinegar, a little at a time, if a paste isn't quite forming.

Step 6 -Transfer the ham from the oven and spread the brown sugar mixture all over it.

Step 7 -Bake until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F and the sugar mixture has caramelized on the meat, about 15-30 minutes.

Step 8 -Slice and serve.
