Ingredients

  • 1 (8 lb.) smoked, ready-to- cook, bone-in ham
  • 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. cola soft drink
  • 1 Tbsp. yellow mustard
  • Garnish; fresh sage sprigs

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, if necessary, trim skin or excess fat from ham. Stir together brown sugar and next 2 ingredients in a small bowl. Brush half of glaze over ham. Wrap ham tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place in a foil-lined 13 × 9-inch pan.
  2. Bake ham at 350 degrees for 2 hours and 40 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into ham registers 148 degrees. Uncover ham and brush with remaining glaze. Bake, uncovered 20 to 30 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer to a serving dish; let stand 20 minutes. Skim fat from pan drippings, and serve with ham. Garnish, if desired.
