Cook and Care

UPON RECEIPT:
Your ham has been flash frozen to lock in natural flavor, ships with dry ice in a recyclable Styrofoam cooler and may arrive frozen or partially thawed. Please refrigerate or re-freeze upon receipt.
STORAGE:
Spiral hams may be refrigerated for up to 7 days or frozen for 3 months and still maintain maximum flavor.
THAWING:
Under Refrigeration: Allow approximately 5 hours per pound to thaw a spiral ham in the refrigerator. Our spiral hams are fully cooked and by using this method may be refrozen without additional cooking.
Quicker Cold Water Bath: For faster thawing, place ham in a leak proof plastic bag and immerse it in cold water. (If the bag leaks, bacteria from the air or surrounding environment could be introduced into the food. Tissues can also absorb water like a sponge, resulting in a watery product.) Check the water frequently to be sure it stays cold. Change the water every 30 minutes. Approximate thawing time for a ham is approximately 30 minutes per pound.
HEATING:
Please note - we have changed our heating instructions to enhance the cooked product quality (more moist, less dry). Preheat oven to 275°F. Remove all packaging materials and place ham in a shallow roasting pan. Whole hams should be cooked fat-side up. Cover pan tightly with aluminum foil. Bake at 275°F for approximately 15 minutes per pound, until heated through. Do not overcook! Remove ham from oven and let stand 20 to 30 minutes before serving.
GLAZING:
This ham is pre-glazed and does not require additional instructions for glaze preparation.
CARVING:
Place the whole ham (flat side down) on a cutting board with the shank (narrow end) to your right. Cut horizontally along the center bone from left to right. This will free the top slices from the bone. To free remaining slices from the sides of the ham, cut along both sides of the center bone. Be sure to keep the bone and remaining meat for seasoning.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
An impressive center-of-the-table entrée or focus of a buffet. Perfect for sandwiches, biscuits, in salads or omelets. Use the bone and leftovers to season soups, beans, or vegetables. Delicious for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
