While our Boneless Holiday Hams do arrive fully cooked, glazing and warming in the oven is a must if you want to enjoy the full experience. If you are looking for the spiral ham cooking instructions, click here.
Our three ingredient glaze adds the touch of sweetness so often associated with holiday hams. Pepper with cloves for an extra festive flavor.
Our hams arrive frozen, so make sure to plan ahead. The rule of thumb for thawing in the refrigerator is 1 day for every 5 LBS of meat. So if you have a 10 LB ham, give yourself 2 days to thaw in the refrigerator.
