Ingredients

10 lbs Spiral Ham
½ stick Butter
4 oz Bourbon
1 cup Brown Sugar
½ cup Orange Juice

Instructions

Preheat the pellet grill to 250 degrees F
Drain off any liquid from cooked ham and pat dry with paper towels then place on a sheet pan. Smoke for about 3 hours or until internal temperature reaches about 140 degrees F.
While Ham is smoking prepare the glaze. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat before adding bourbon. turn off the heat when adding bourbon then slowly turn the flame back on and cook for 2 minutes to burn off the alcohol.
Whisk in orange juice and cook for 5 minutes, then add brown sugar, stirring until smooth. Cook for about 2 minutes, constantly stirring, then remove from heat and set aside.
After 3 hours of smoking raise the pellet grill temperature to 275 degrees F. and begin glazing the ham every 20 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees. Get at least 3 coats of glaze on the ham.
Rest ham wrapped with foil for 15 minutes before serving.
