Ingredients

Servings
  • 9 lbs ham fully cooked, bone-in

For The Coffee Rub

  • 4 Tbsp sugar
  • 3 Tbsp ground coffee
  • 3 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp black pepper ground
  • 3 Tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1 Tbsp molasses

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, prepare the rub by mixing together sugar, ground coffee, garlic, red pepper flakes, paprika, and black pepper.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together mustard and molasses.
  3. Place the ham in a 9x13 baking dish (or roasting pan if it is too large). Score the ham deeply (up to 1”) by making diagonal cuts with a sharp knife. (This will allow the flavors of the rub to penetrate down into the meat.)
  4. Spread the mustard mixture all over the ham, getting as much into the cuts as possible.
  5. Rub the seasoning mixture all over the ham, again getting as much into the crevices you have cut as possible.
  6. Let the ham set overnight or up to 24 hours, refrigerated.
  7. When you are ready to cook the ham, preheat the oven to 325F. Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil.
  8. Bake for 20 minutes per pound of your ham. (Our 9 lb ham baked for 3 hours.) Remove the foil after the first hour of cooking, which will create a nice crisp outer layer.

Notes

  • You can throw some carrots and chopped potatoes in the pan with the ham while it is cooking. They will become infused with the ham juices and seasonings, and eliminate the need to prepare sides for the meal.
