Mr. Food: Cherry-Citrus Glazed Ham

Mr. Food

Makes 10 Servings

1 (5- to 6-pound) fully cooked semi-boneless cured ham
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 (12-ounce) can cola
3/4 cup cherry preserves
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons orange-flavored liqueur
  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Using a sharp knife, score top of ham in a crisscross pattern. Place ham in a large roasting pan and sprinkle with allspice. Pour cola into pan and bake uncovered for 45 minutes, basting occasionally with pan juices.

  2. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine remaining ingredients and cook over medium heat 3 to 5 minutes, or until cherry preserves are melted.

  3. Remove ham from oven and brush top and sides with glaze. Return ham to oven and cook for 45 more minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham registers 140°F., brushing with glaze every 15 minutes. Remove ham from oven and let rest 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or cold.
