Ginger Ale-Brown Sugar Smoked Ham

• 1 (8- to 9-lb.) smoked, ready-to-cook, bone-in ham
• 2 (12-oz.) bottles or cans spicy ginger ale
• 1/2 cup bourbon
• 1/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

1. Preheat oven to 325u0b0. Remove skin from ham, and trim fat to 1/4-inch thickness. Make shallow cuts in fat 1 inch apart in a diamond pattern. Place ham, fat side up, in a roasting pan; add ginger ale and bourbon to pan. Cover loosely with foil.
2. Bake, covered, at 325u0b0 for 4 to 4 1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer inserted into ham registers 140u0b0, basting with pan juices every 30 minutes.
3. Stir together brown sugar and next 4 ingredients. Remove ham from oven; uncover and sprinkle sugar mixture over ham, lightly pressing mixture into fat.
4. Bake, uncovered, at 325u0b0 for 20 to 25 minutes or until crust is browned and a meat thermometer registers 145u0b0. Transfer ham to a cutting board, and let stand 15 minutes before carving.
