In the spirit of keeping things easy in the kitchen,
this glazed ham can be baked in the oven or put on the grill
As it warms, brush it occasionally
with a decadent combo of maple syrup, butter and bourbon
Multiple brushes of glaze will add more flavor than just brushing once
This is a fully cooked small half ham that came already sliced
So much easier than slicing yourself!
I highly recommend using a silicone brush
silicone brushes are easy to use and easy to clean
You can see a variety of sizes and styles on Amazon here
