How long to warm up an 8 lb ham?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46827points) December 23rd, 2011

Christmas dinner tonight! We have an 8 pound ham that we injected with cherry and pineapple juice, and let it set in the fridge overnight. I’ve never done a ham before. I wanted an uncooked ham, but the specialty meat store I went to didn’t have one, so this one just needs to be warmed up.

We’re going to baste it with a brown sugar, cherry and pineapple juice mix.

So, what temp and how long? And is it possible to over cook a ham the way you can over cook a turkey? Will it dry out like a turkey?

Any other suggestions would be VERY much appreciated.
