- Place ham in roasting pan; pour water in pan.
- Cover loosely with heavy-duty foil.

- Meanwhile, mix glaze ingredients.
- Remove ham from oven; brush with one-third of glaze.
- Continue to bake, uncovered 1 hour, brushing with remaining glaze every 20 minutes, or until internal temperature registers 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer.
- Let ham rest 20 minutes.
- Transfer to platter.
- Serve ham hot, warm or at room temperature.
- Plan ahead: Let ham come to room temperature, covered about 2 hours before baking.
- This will serve 8, with leftovers.
