  4. Cover with parchment paper, then tightly cover the pan with foil.

  5. Bake the ham for 40 minutes. Turn the oven to 325 degrees F and bake for 2 hours and 30 minutes longer, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part without touching the bone registers 120 degrees F.

  9. Bake the ham for 15 minutes, or until nicely browned.

  10. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes.
