Best Answer

yes, due to the length of time it takes to bake a ham, you need to protect the outside of the ham from getting tough. the moisture in the ham would dissipate too fast friom the surface and it would be very dry. some cooks remove the foil the last 10-15 minutes so browning occues or a sauce is applied for taste.
