You should cook it to an internal temperature of 165f or 74c instead of a set time...sorry, the Internet has ruined me. I'm so alone.

My ham has been in the oven for 2 hours and the core temperature is only 70... I don't think it will be ready when "dinner" starts in an hour and a half...

To be fair, this is the first time I've cooked holiday food in my own oven in my own residence... I've never cooked a ham this big before.

TL;DR A pre-cooked 10-pound ham, bone-in will need about 2 1/2 hours.

At this point I'm just going to assume the core was still slightly frozen or close to it when I put it in. I left it to thaw for several days in the refrigerator...

Ah well, a learning experience for next year.

You live and you learn!

Maybe practice with a ham during the year to figure cook times out :)

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

Cooking practice is the best practice, because I get to celebrate each success and some of the failures with a nice meal
