Ingredients

1 (8-10 pound) (3.6-4.5 kg) bone in ham
⅓ cup (90g) Dijon mustard
⅓ cup (90g) whole grain or stone ground mustard
¼ cup (85g) honey
¼ cup (8g) finely chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
4 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

Let the ham sit at room temperature for 25-30 minutes. While the ham is sitting combine the mustards, honey, herbs, and garlic in a small bowl; set aside.
Preheat oven to 325°F. Score the ham through the fat in a diagonal pattern without cutting into the meat. Place the ham flat side down into a roasting pan or large baking pan. Add ¼ cup water to the pan. Brush with half of the mustard mixture and cover with foil. Bake for 2 ½ hours or until an internal temperature of 120°F.
Remove from oven and remove foil. Brush with remaining mustard mixture and broil until bubbly and golden. Rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

SLOW COOKER INSTRUCTIONS: Score ham in a diagonal pattern without cutting into the meat and brush with half of the mustard mixture. Place in a 6 quart or larger slow cooker and add 1/4 cup water to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours. Remove from slow cooker and brush with remaining mustard mixture. Broil until bubbly and golden.
