Fat Boy’s Delectable Ham

One 8 pound bone-in smoked ham, preferably the shank end
Fat Boy Cowgirl Rub
Fat Boy Cowgirl Sweet ‘n Hot Finishing Glaze

Preheat oven to 350 degrees, making sure rack is in the center of the oven. Line a large roasting pan with foil. Using a sharp knife, trim off all of the skin from the ham, except for a 1″-2″ band around the shank. Trim off all of the fat, leaving less than a 1/4″ thick layer. sprinkle the Cowgirl Rub on the exposed surfaces of the ham, covering as much surface lightly as possible. Place the ham on a roasting rack in the pan and bake until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham (away from the bone) registers 140 degrees, about 2 hours, or 15 minutes per pound. With 30 minutes left in the cooking time, lightly glaze the exposed surface of the ham with Cowgirl Sweet ‘n Hot Finishing Glaze. Transfer the ham to a cutting board or a platter. Let stand 15-20 minutes before carving meat.
