Cherry Bourbon Glazed Ham

Got another one for the baked ham collection y'all! 

This glaze idea came from Terry, one of our Facebook family members, when he mentioned and shared a cherry glaze he makes for the holidays, so I decided to give it a run with my own twists, of course!

I'm so far behind in getting this posted - it's just been one of those weeks - that I've no time to share the usual tips and such, so if you're cooking a ham for the first time, click through those previous hams I've posted to pick up on those.

Whiskey Glazed Baked Ham

My favorite baked ham, hands down, has always been what is probably the most classic southern baked ham - a brown sugar and mustard glazed ham with a Coca-Cola pan sauce. It is so good! Still, like everything else, I do enjoy mixing it up occasionally and this whiskey-glazed ham is a mighty fine version too!
