Critical Success Points

  • Seal the ham tightly with aluminum foil to retain juices.
  • Brown the butter without burning it.
  • Simmer the glaze on low heat to avoid scorching.
  • Score the ham shallowly and evenly.
  • Increase oven temperature to 375°F for proper caramelization.
  • Achieve an internal temperature of 135°F.

Safety Warnings

  • Butter and glaze become extremely hot; use oven mitts when handling.
  • Sharp knife required for scoring; cut away from your body.
  • Ensure the ham reaches an internal temperature of 135°F to be safely reheated.
