Marinated Ham (Spanish-Style)

Directions

Prepare ham the night before by trimming away some of the excess fat, but leave as much skin as possible.

Salt the meat to taste; cut small slashes into the ham and wedge in the slivers of garlic.

Mix a marinade of minced garlic, lemon and lime juice.

Pour over meat, cover tightly with foil, and refrigerate overnight.

When ready to cook, heat the oven to 300℉ (150℃)

Roast the meat about three hours, basting evry half hour.

Bring the center of the ham to 165F degrees (use a meat thermometer to check temperature).

Just before removing the ham from the oven, raise the heat to crisp the skin.
