1. Preheat oven to 325 F.
2. Unwrap ham and place on roasting rack in shallow roasting pan. Pour any juices from the ham package over the ham. optional: carefully make cuts about a half inch deep and about 1.5 inches apart across the top of the ham. Turn the ham 90 degrees and repeat, so the cuts intersect.
3. Cover bottom of pan with a little water. Optional: mix the water with some bourbon, pork stock, cider, wine, or beer.
4. Cover ham and roasting pan with a loose "tent" of aluminum foil, and seal edges of aluminum foil tightly around rim of roasting pan. Bake for approximately 12-15 minutes per pound.
5. With about 30-45 minutes left in heating time, remove ham from oven and baste with juices from pan. Return ham to oven uncovered and continue heating. Basting can be repeated several times during those last 30-45 minutes.
6. Final internal temperature of ham should reach 140 F. Remember, ham is already fully cooked, but heating to this temperature helps ensure it’s warm throughout.
7. Remove ham from oven and allow it to rest, loosely covered, for about 15 minutes before slicing.
