Is it really even a holiday without a sweet and salty glazed ham? I definitely don’t think so! If you are someone who partakes of Pork, then I’m sure you probably have a taste for ham when Thanksgiving and Christmas rolls around. This ham recipe is my take on what a Holiday Ham should taste like. The dark rum is what makes it “drunken” and the brown sugar and syrup bring in the sweet flavors. If this recipe doesn’t have everyone asking “who made the ham this year” then I don’t know what will lol. Enjoy and please let me know how your ham turned out !
