Baked Ham With Brown Sugar And Apple Glaze
- 1 (6 lb) bone-in ham (use a butt portion)
- 3 cups apple cider (use apple cider not 3 cups apple cider vinegar!)

- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- Set oven to 325 degrees.
- Place the ham in a roasting pan and bake until a thermometer reads 150F (about 15 minutes per pound).
- Cool the ham completely (you can cover and refrigerate the cooked ham up to 2 days ahead).
- In a saucepan bring the apple cider and dried apples to a boil over medium heat.
- Boil until the liquid is reduced to about 1-1/2 cups (this should take about 8-10 minutes).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, cider vinegar and mustard until well blended.
- Add to the cider mixture; simmer sauce until reduced to about 2-1/4 cups, stirring occasionally (this shoud take about 5-6 minutes) the sauce can be prepared a day in advance and refrigerated.
- Set oven to 375 degrees.
- Cut 1/2-inch slices from the bone, and place into a glass baking dish.
- Spoon the sauce over the slices.
- Bake in the oven until heated through and the sauce bubbles (about 25-30 minutes).
- Transfer to a platter to serve.
