1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne
whole cloves
1 c dark brown sugar
1/2 c whisky

Place cloves in ham where score lines intersect. Mix a small amount of cola with the brown sugar to make a paste. Spread all over ham, pressing to make it stick. Pour 2 cups of cola in bottom of pan. Bake 1 hour. In a container mix the whisky and and remaining 2 cups of cola. Baste the ham with the whisky cola mixture and continue baking, basting with both the whiskey cola mixture and pan juices(very important & worth the effort) If during this time to much liquid accumulates in the bottom of your pan, just remove some with a baster and discard. You may also want to cover ham loosely with a foil tent. Skin will become very dark, don't worry its suppose to. Continue to cook 2 - 2 1/2 hours until meat thermometer reads 165. Remove from oven and let rest 20 minutes before slicing.
