Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven until the internal temperature of the ham reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Baste the ham with the pan juices every 20-30 minutes to keep it moist and glossy. (90-105 minutes)

Recipe View Let the ham rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful ham. (10 minutes)

For a deeper bourbon flavor, you can reduce the marinade in a saucepan over medium heat until slightly thickened, then use it as a final glaze during the last 15 minutes of baking.
If you don't have pineapple rings, you can use maraschino cherries or other decorative garnishes.
Be sure to use a meat thermometer to ensure the ham is cooked to a safe internal temperature.

    I was a bit hesitant about the pineapple, but it really complements the ham beautifully. I'll definitely be making this again!
