Ham in Burgundy and Sweet Spiced Marinade Recipe
Ingredients
One 10-pound bone-in ham, shank portion
10 to 12 cinnamon sticks, broken in half
24 whole cloves
Two 750ml bottles burgundy wine
Instructions
10 to 12 cinnamon sticks, broken in half
24 whole cloves
Two 750ml bottles burgundy wine
1.Trim off the rind and pierce 20 to 24 holes in the ham with a paring knife, twisting the knife to form a ½ -inch gap. Insert the halved cinnamon sticks in each of the slits, with the jagged side in the ham, leaving ¼ inch showing. Insert the cloves over the entire ham surface, particularly near the cinnamon sticks.
2. Place the ham in a nonreactive stockpot. Cover the ham with several layers of cheesecloth and pour the wine through the cheesecloth, soaking the ham thoroughly. Refrigerate 48 hours, turning and basting the ham occasionally.
3. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
4. Remove the ham from the stockpot; discard the cheesecloth. Place the ham in a 13 x 9-inch glass baking dish and bake 18 to 20 minutes per pound, until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. Remove the ham from the oven and let stand 15 minutes before slicing.
Serves 20.

Tips From Our Test Kitchen: An alternate way to marinate the ham is to place it in a large turkey bag, add the wine, seal the bag with a twist tie and turn several times to coat. Place in a 13 x 9-inch glass baking dish, and refrigerate 48 hours, turning occasionally.
