Grandmag’s Baked Christmas Ham,We always have a huge smoked ham at Christmas. When my children were little I never slept Christmas Eve night, I always stayed up and cooked the Christmas ham, and waited on Santa. My GrannyN use to cook hers this way, the only thing I changed is I don’t pre-bake the ham in brown paper bags like she did. Cook times vary from the size of the ham used. Our ham at Christmas is usually 25-30 pounds. Check the package wrap for suggested cook times for the pound ham that you purchased. My final cook times are approximate, it depends on the thermometer readings. I have also posted a great recipe for leftover ham.,I decided to give this recipe a try based on an old memory from Christmas at grandmas. I’m so glad we did! This is a recipe that made even the ham hater in the group, go back for seconds. That’s a great compliment to this simple flavorful recipe. My ham was moist and amazing. Made great gravy from the drippings too :),I love this recipe, I made it for Christmas of ’07 and it cam out great. I lost the recipe and search for months and finally found it again just in time for Mother’s day. It’s a perfect meal for every ham lover. Thanks for the great meal.
