Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325º. Place ham on a roasting rack set in a roasting pan and score diagonally. Cover with foil and bake until warmed throughout, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
• During the last 45 minutes of cooking, make glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together brown sugar, mustard, apple cider vinegar, and apple cider. Bring up to a boil, then reduce to a medium simmer and cook until reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Brush glaze on ham every 15 minutes, until until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part reads 140°.
• Remove ham from oven, give one final glaze, and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.
