PROCEDURE: In a medium saucepan, melt the stick of butter with the sugar and spices. Once thoroughly blended, add Don Q Gold Rum and cook on medium for 5 minutes. Inject half of the mixture into the ham. Slowly pour the remaining mixture over the top of the ham. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 6 hours. For an interesting Creole twist, add coarsely chopped pecans when mixture is simmering with the rum.
