BAKED COUNTRY HAM >Back
to Top< I would bake it at a constant 325 in roasting pan for about 20 - 30 minutes per pound: i.e. a 14-pound ham would cook 4 to 4-1/2 hours. It is suggested to soak a country ham before cooking to reduce the salty flavor. I have fixed both ways, soaking or not and can't tell the difference. I have a big roaster pan with a rack in the bottom and top that accommodates a 25-pound+ turkey or ham. I put water in the bottom and cook for several hours. Alternate, method would be boiling the ham. I would just rinse the ham well , place in large covered roaster with water in bottom and bake at 325 for 20 to 30 min. per pound It will been done when you see the meat pulling from the bone.
BAKED DRY-CURED COUNTRY HAM >Back to Top< Soak the ham first, pour off the water, then wrap the ham in a double
thickness of foil, place it in a pan and bake it at 500 degrees for 30 minutes,

BAKED HAM 1 >Back to Top< 1 (4 to 5-pound) pork ham With a large fork, pierce the ham and in each hole place a bit of the bacon and sandwich ham to fill the holes. Grind the garlic and peppercorns with a tablespoon of water in a blender. Once well ground, add the vinegar and blend a bit more. Place the ham in a deep dish or non-reactive container (plastic, glass, etc.) and pour vinegar mixture over all to cover. Allow to marinate in the vinegar mixture for 2 hours, turning occasionally. Place a roasting pan large enough to hold the ham on the stovetop and, over medium flame, sear the ham on all sides. Cover and transfer to a 400 F. oven for 30 minutes then reduce heat to 325 and bake for 2 hours, removing cover during the last 30 minutes of baking. Remove from oven and slice. Reserve juices. Pour the reserved juices into a saucepan and heat, serve over sliced ham Garnish the fondue with the parsley and red pepper and serve with the bread
cubes.
BAKED HAM 2 >Back to Top< 1 uncooked but smoked ham Preheat oven to slow (300 degrees). Place ham under cold running water and scrub the rind well with a stiff brush. Dry the ham and place it in a roasting pan with skin and fat side up. Insert meat thermometer through fat side into thickest part of the ham. Bake the ham uncovered 23 minutes per pound or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160 on a meat thermometer. (If ham weights over 12 pounds, seventeen minutes per pound should be sufficient. When in doubt, go by internal temperature). When the ham is done, remove it from the oven and using kitchen shears or a
sharp knife, cut away skin and all but 1/4-1/8-inch of the fat. Score the fat
diagonally, forming diamond shapes. Stud ham with a clove in center of each
diamond. Brush with orange juice. Mix brown sugar and dry mustard and
BAKED HAM 3 >Back to Top< Score the ham in the traditional criss-cross manner. Insert whole cloves into all the points of the "diamonds" (pattern created by the scoring). Bake at 325 F use the Ham Baking chart to find the correct time for the size ham you are baking. During the last 45 minutes of baking time, baste the ham, with Raisin Sauce every 15 minutes or so. Make extra sauce because everyone loves it so much and they love it served on
the side.
