Christmas Ham

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Prep the bag according to the directions. Trim any excess fat from the ham and score the ham in a diamond pattern. Poke cloves in the center of the diamond. Place the ham in the prepared roasting bag, add several sprigs of rosemary and thyme and seal the bag. Place in a roasting pan with at least 2 inch sides.

Reseal the bag and return to the oven for an additional 30 minutes or until its an internal temperature of 140 degrees F. on an instant read thermometer without touching the bone or fat. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing.
