    Cooking Instructions for our Grilled Whole Ham with Sweet Kentucky Bourbon Glaze

    1. Prepare grill for cooking with indirect heat and then preheat grill to 325oF/163oC for 15 minutes.
    2. Score ham with diagonal cuts and insert cloves of garlic in them.
    3. Lightly oil the XL Roast and Rib Rack then place ham on the rack.

    5. Grill the ham about 18 minutes per pound until you get an internal temperature reading of 140oF. When there is 30-45 minutes of grilling time left, remove the rack with ham from the grill and place it in a roasting pan.
    6. Combine brown sugar, pineapple juice, and bourbon.
    7. Arrange the pineapple slices on the ham evenly then secure each slice in place with a toothpick.  Slide a maraschino cherry onto each toothpick next to the pineapple.
    8. Pour the brown sugar, bourbon, and pineapple juice mixture over the ham and return the ham with the rack to the grill to finish cooking. 
    9. Remove from grill and let ham rest at least 25 minutes before carving. Do not cover with foil while resting.
