Your ham might say “fully cooked” on the label, but that’s just the starting point. For a glorious, safe-to-eat result, you want an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C). Why not higher? Because anything above that starts drying out the ham faster than a desert wind. Use a meat thermometer—it’s your best friend here, not a suggestion.

Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the meat, away from the bone. Are you doing this? Good. The bone heats differently and will lie to you. Don’t let the bone gaslight your ham.

Glazing: The Fun Part

Here’s where you get creative. A simple glaze of brown sugar, honey, and a splash of orange juice or mustard can turn your humble ham into a table centerpiece. Apply the glaze during the last 30 to 45 minutes of cooking, brushing it on every 10 minutes for a sticky, shiny crust. It’s like giving your ham a spa treatment before it hits the spotlight.

Rhetorical question: Who doesn’t want a ham that looks like it just walked off a magazine cover? Exactly. That’s you, making memories, not just a meal.
