How do you cook an 8 pound precooked spiral cut ham and do you add water in the pan to cook the ham?

Your ham is already cooked so what you'll be doing prior to serving is re-heating (essentially). Personally, I wouldn't add water; I'd keep the heat rather low (no higher than 325 F) and re-heat it slowly. If you add water, you'll be steaming the ham rather than keeping the somewhat crispy outer coating. It can be done either way but I believe you'll have a superior result by heating without water. Do, however, keep the ham covered to retain all the flavors and avoid it becoming dry. That's really all you must do.

How do you cook an 8 pound precooked spiral cut ham and do you suppose to add water in the pan?
Since your ham is precooked, all you have to do is cover it with foil and warm it up at 325 degrees for about 60 to 90 minutes. If you want the outside browned, just take the foil off the last ten minutes and raise the heat to 350-375. It will not dry out because most hams are injected with lots of water at the packing plant. Now, if you want your ham to taste out-of-this-world delicious, here's how I did it when I was a professional cook. Mix together: the juice from 1-15oz can of pineapples, 1/4 cup brown sugar and 4 teaspoons ground cloves. Slather the mixture all over your ham and in between any slices you can get it in to. Cook the same as above. Save the juice for gravy or just spoon it on your ham and mashed potatoes. I guarantee you will love it.
