The stuffing should be pressed into the gashes. Place the ham with its fat face-down on a rack within the baking pan. The roasting pan should be set for 20 minutes. then reduce the temperature to 325°F.

Begin to check the ham’s condition within 4 hours. Bake until your internal temperature is 140 degrees (approximately 51/2 hours duration of cooking).

Set aside in a room at room temp, and cover loosely with foil for minimum 30 minutes. The temperature of the insides should increase to 155°F.

Make the gravy while your roast is in rest.
