Easy Southern Classic Ham all year around. My Mother feels that the coco cola pulls some of the salt off and tenderizes the inside of the ham. It also gives it a wonderful caramelization on the outside.

Easter is such a beautiful time of the year. Here in East Texas, it has been uncommonly cold the last week or so, and you would never know that sparing is here except for the beautiful blooms.
Another Thing Easter brings is the time of the year we have Easy Baked Country Ham aka Coco Cola Ham.
Our Easter mornings are so busy with getting to church, taking pictures, and preparing a delicious meal.
A baked spiral ham basted with Classic Coke can sure make it so much simpler.
Spiral hams cook faster and are presliced, so there is little carving at the table.
The wonderful pan juices in the bottom of the pan helps to keep the ham moist and juicy when served at the table.

Cover the ham in the pan with foil, sealing the edges of the pan with the foil.
