🧂 Ingredients

• 1 fully cooked bone-in ham

  8-10 pounds
• 3/4 cup light brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 7 ounce chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

  1 small can
• 4 garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
• 1 tablespoon ancho powder

  or use your favorite chili powder blend
• 1-2 tablespoons hot sauce

  use your favorite!
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 12 ounces amber colored beer

  I used a Mexican lager

Instructions

• 1 First, heat your oven to 325 degrees F. Place the ham into a lightly oiled
  roasting pan, cut side down.
• 2 Use a knife to score the surface of the ham with a cross-hatch pattern. Bake the
  ham for 90 minutes, uncovered.
• 3 While the ham is baking, make the chipotle-honey glaze. Add the following
  ingredients to a food processor: brown sugar, honey, vinegar, chipotles in
  adobo, garlic, mustard, ancho powder, hot sauce, cumin and a bit of salt and
  pepper. Process to form a thick paste.
• 4 Transfer the mixture to a large pan and stir in the beer to incorporate. Bring
  the glaze to a quick boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes to
  reduce it slightly. Reserve half of the glaze to serve it with the finished ham.
• 5 After 90 minutes, brush the ham with glaze then continue to bake another 30
  minutes, adding a bit more glaze a few times during the final cooking, until the
  internal temperature of the ham measures 140 degrees F when measured with a meat
  thermometer.
• 6 Remove the ham and cool it slightly. Carve and serve with the extra glaze.
