Score the fat on the ham in a checkerboard pattern and put the ham in a roasting pan fat side up, cover with foil and put in the oven for 1 hour.

Mix bourbon, maple syrup, mustard and orange marmalade in a sauce pan and heat over medium low heat until all ingredients are melted together. Remove and reserve.

After ham has been in for 1 hour, remove foil and put back in the oven for another ½ hour. Then start basting with your glaze every 10 minutes for another 30-40 minutes.
