      Yield: 12 servings

     10 lb Ham; *
      6 c  Coca-cola
      1 c  Brown Sugar; Dark, Packed

      2 T  Mustard; Prepared, Sharp
      2 c  Bread Crumbs; Fine, Dry

  ++++++++++++++++++ Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  Place ham, fat side down, in a shallow baking pan.
  Pour coke into pan until it is 1/2-inch deep.  Bake 2
  to 3 hours, or until ham can be easily pierced with a
  fork, basting with the Coca-Cola every 15 to 20
  minutes.  (Center of ham will read 140 degrees F on a
  meat thermometer when properly cooked.)  Remove ham
  from the pan and cool.  Cut away rind and fat with a
  sharp knife.  Combine sugar, mustards, bread crumbs,
  and enough Coke to form a thick paste.  Place ham on
  roasting rack in pan and pat all over with the paste.
  Add remaining coke to the bottom of the pan.  Increase
  the temperature to 375 degrees F. and bake the ham 45
  minutes longer, basting every 20 to 15 minutes until
  sugar-mustard paste has melted to a dark glaze.  Let
  stand at room temperature 30 minutes before slicing.
