Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Place ham in the prepared roasting pan; pierce several times with a fork. This allows the glaze to penetrate the ham, infusing it with flavor. (2 minutes)

03

Step

In a bowl, combine brown sugar, peach preserves, and mustard until well mixed. Generously spread the mixture over the ham, ensuring every surface is coated. Cover the ham with aluminum foil to lock in moisture during the initial baking phase. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 90 minutes, basting with pan juices every 20-30 minutes to keep the ham moist and flavorful. Remove foil; continue baking until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), approximately 30 to 45 minutes more. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the ham to ensure accuracy. (120 minutes)

For a deeper flavor, consider using smoked ham.
If the glaze starts to darken too quickly during the final baking stage, loosely tent the ham with foil to prevent burning.
Let the ham rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful product.

    Basting every 30 minutes is the key to not having the ham dry out!
