@@beverlydixon5240 I bought a boneless smoked ham, cut cross-hatches in it and inserted whole cloves and packed with brown sugar. Baked low and slow. Very disappointed that the clove flavor did not penetrate very far into ham. What did I do wrong ???
yea, sounds like this snob has servants to do her shopping and maybe even someone to cook her holiday ham while she guzzles down a few bottles of wine while shopping online
As a former caterer and butcher ( I break down livestock, not run meat thru a saw ) Buy Sugardale or John Morrell hams. Nowadays Sugardale are cryovac for shelf life, but with 16 oz. of ginger ale or 7up, (Brits and Irish call it Lemonade), it will pull in the flavors of ginger and sweet. The John Morrell is my fav, Skin and fat on. I watched in horror as all these TV chef's chop off the fat and flavor! Down South they would be hung for sheer stupidity,, I am amazed they have TV shows! Get a roaster and set at 275 f, the ham should be room temp, and the roaster has to lift out rack with your lemonade or ginger, flavors. Cook 7 min. per lbs.It is already smoked and at room temp! Let it rest 20 min and then enjoy. I just cook one and it was phenomenal!
You get the very best flavour by pre-boiling the ham, not baking. Boil in cider with chopped onions, carrots, leeks, bay leaves and cracked pepper. Then . . . remove the skin, stud with cloves, cover in a delicious honey glaze and bake at a highish heat for 30-40 mins. Honestly, no decent tips at all in this video, and too much unemotional 'do this, do that'.
This sounds awesome I was looking for information on boil vs roast to cook ham for sandwiches and you gave me the right answer I want, thanks, yea this video is shite 🤣
This video is right about bone in. I hate spiral hams though. I also score my hams myself with a box cutter I use only in the kitchen for that specific purpose. I also after the 1st hour of slow cooking pull the rind of where I scored it then put my next coating on it myself. A ham is not hard to cook.
Thank you. Is Ham healthy to eat often? Or just a special occasion kind of thing. I don't think I've ever had any but am going to learn how to cook it.
@@pharaohsmagician8329 As a senior I eat in moderation... and if I eat two days in a row it makes my ankles swell. Too much salt intake is not good for anyone!
3/4 pound per person, heh? The smallest one I could find in my grocery case was about 6 pounds, and only for 3 people. Oh well. Guess I'll be eating lots of ham sandwiches for a while.
I bought a boneless ham, smoke rotisserie with foil around it. when it was about done took the foil off and based it with LOG CABIN SYRUP until nice and golden brown. For a extra touch i sprinkle lightly with cinnamon, Jalapeno powder OMG YUM This is going to be the only way i'am cooking a ham>> The pancake syrup was excellent on it
i boil my ham in a liquid of juices sugars fruits beer and spices for 30 min then bake it slow while basting every 15 min for a sticky moist sweet ham with the sauce on the side
We've been buying 'Superior Tavern Whole Boneless Ham' for over 25 yrs... tasty ham goodness! I wrap ham tightly in heavy duty foil & bake for an add'l 3.5 - 4 hrs to assure its tenderness. After baking open up foil & let it set for an hr & we use an electric knife to slice. Why change anything if it isn't broken?
Gee how terrible that EVERYONE has made a mistake when cooking a ham. We had to wait for the 21st century for someone to tell us what we’re doing wrong. Gee, golly, much obliged!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well yes and no. I look for deals. on meats. Lot of times rather than brand names. i'am trying new brand. I can even take a lemon, and make it into a apple he hee Just taste it! With what ever you think it would be good. if its honey, pancake syrup, pineapples, oranges, what ever make it taste best, IN THIS CASE i didn't want brown sugar, honey, ect. I tried it with pancake syrup, it tasted AWESOME ! So that what i used. Don't limit yourself to 1 way only! TRY OTHER THINGS, Next time i'am going to try ROOTBEER ! That right rootbeer ham!
Good ol fashioned pineapple juice in a desperate move you can use Coca-Cola and as long as you're not a moron ham is the easiest thing to cook......... my name is NINO!!!!!!🤟🏼👨🏽🍳🤟🏼
Budda ball ham, no bones,no salt, no fat, theres nothing to throw away. Brush with a glaze and bake at 350 until it gets alittle crispy. My family loves it but, I dont, little pigs are just too cute!💜🐖
@@tehmodestmouse6275 the ham is not fake and neither is the price, I dont want to pay for the fat and bone, theres no use for it, some ppl like to make a ham and pea soup from the bone, I dont,
Hi @jessie! I saw your comment and I just want to let you know that yyou are not alone, my holiday season has been going the same way.....just me! I got this big ole FJ spiral cut ham & don't know what to with it🤣 Happy holidays🎄 to you!!!!! Be safe and take care!
Hi Jessie. I understand many of my loved ones are gone as well. Wishing you the happiest holiday possible. With pandemic this year it seems there’s an abundance of loneliness for all. My mom & wife who are both gone now used pineapple & 7up. I’m going to try the brown sugar & honey method this year then deliver to loved ones who can’t cook.
Michael robert: Not so, ham is a cut of meat. Traditionally it is smoked or cured. Still needs to be cooked. Modern processor pre-cooks so that todays lazy homemaker only needs to heat and serve. Totally misses the complex flavor profiles of a great traditionally prepared ham. Buy a proper ham directly from your meat purveyors. You and your family will be glad you did!
Michael robert: HaHa. Just buy a great smoked or properly cured ham...not water cured. Get out grandma’s recipe, it’ll be fine. Happy Easter Michael Robert.
Well folks dhow this is a an ok sort of video please be aware. While the narrator may be British and have a British accent .All the temperatures recommended are in the Fahrenheit (°F) range Where as in England they use Celsius (°C) the internal temperature of 143 F is the equivalent of 61.6667 Celsius (°C) But please be advised for an uncooked ham the recommendations are 63°C or if you are in America where they use the Fahrenheit scale that would be 145°F for the internal temperature . A cooked ham the recommended internal temperature is 140°F or 60°C So going 145°F or 63°C on a cooked ham you will be over cooking it. Now as the only countries that officially use Fahrenheit as a unit for measuring temperature is the United States, the Liberia and the Cayman Islands. Other parts of the world use both, though Celsius is the standard. So one can take it this video is for the American market. But if you are outside the aforementioned. Then your appliances control's are more than likely designed for the Celsius (°C) temperature range . So something to look out for when cooking As for F to (°C) converting Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature. Multiply this number by five. Divide the result by nine. 143 F - 32 =111 x 5 = 555 / 9 = 61.6666666667 But no matter what you do always cook your ham LOW AND SLOW An internal temperature gauge is a must in any kitchen Anything else is just guessing and mostly leads to over cooking or even worse under cooking It is all about the internal temperature once you know that requirement and when it is reached. Any meat you cook will always be delicious with the correct amount of mouthwatering moisture and flavours
Foolish woman calls the Christmas Ham “ holiday ham” so as to not offend those religions who ….. guess what dear, don’t eat pork !!!!! Unbelievable !!!!!
Caleb Colbum ... I think that MAYBE you have read it wrong. It's NOT 3/4s per person ... it's three quarters of a pound per person. i.e. 12 ounces each.
Did you know your ham that you are having for dinner from Smithfield ham is from China.... Don't believe me look it up. Sorry to ruin your dinner.... Wake up Americans.
Since cooking and flavor is completely subjective, here’s my two cents. If you have cloves or ground clove in your house, you’ll need to dispose of it or burn your house down. Clove is disgusting and overpowers anything it touches.
A 1/16 tsp of cloves (or a pinch) in a marinade of red wine, garlic, evoo, allspice, bouillon, tomato paste/water, red pepper flakes, sometimes cinnamon. Let sirloin tips marinate overnight then cover and bake in the marinade for a couple of hours with onions. Heaven.
Do you know any tips or tricks for cooking the perfect ham?
Yes
Yes. start with an uncooked/cured/smoked leg of a pig. Maybe start at the beginning?
Use whole cloves and brown sugar for your glaze.
banshee says flame grill it
@@beverlydixon5240 I bought a boneless smoked ham, cut cross-hatches in it and inserted whole cloves and packed with brown sugar. Baked low and slow. Very disappointed that the clove flavor did not penetrate very far into ham. What did I do wrong ???
I bought a double glazed ham from Aldi and actually decided to use the additional glaze packet. It was the best ham we ever had, and the cheapest.

I’m British, 7up is a brand name and it is a lemonade, just like sprite. Hope this helps you sleep at night lol
In ireland we got red lemonade along with white and as the other lad said we also have 7 up and sprite...just not ginger ale...
My Mom used to bake our hams in brown paper bags, low and slow. It was delicious and not dried out at all.
Sugar dale bone in ham with brown sugar glaze and cloves is the most delicious and old fashioned ham to be had.

The fake hams are chopped meat pressed into a mold and mixed with spices. If you want a real ham it must have a bone in it.
If it taste good. It taste good. 🤷🏻
I hate bone in stuff
Exactly
@@horrorfan5157 you don’t know what real food tastes like
The most uninformative ham video when it comes to flavour. and season.
Can you explain more
Yes, I always pre-order fancy ham for those pandemic shutdown holiday meals. 😂
Biggest mistake would be watching this video.
I don’t know why this was recommended to me I don’t eat ham, bacon or any kind of pork.
Catfish Cave ... I totally agree with you. Never seen so much rubbish about cooking hams/gammons etc..
Ok so what is the better video? Don’t just talk shit and give no help to find something you think is better. I need to make a ham!
Why? It's helpful
Thanks for heads up saved 6mins of my life!

Not one ham had a slice of pineapple🤔
English accent. They don't do pineapple on ham.
that's out dated now an dosent work !. all top chefs warn of that. horrible combination
this is why I would rather have advice from a grandmother than a top chef.

I don't care what ham you buy. As long as you don't overcook it to death, I am going to be a participant in devouring that ham to the fullest!
Lol nice. No snobbery here either. Any ham can be doctored up and taste great. Especially if its cooked all day

NICE COOKING
Made the best Ham ever using this channels tips (and donated).
aren't most hams already fully cooked?
You buy the meat joint as a 'gammon'. Cooking it turns it into a 'ham'!
Great and very insightful video thank you🤗🙏

Christmas ham. You can keep your holiday ham.
So you have Christmas Ham for Easter? Or Thanksgiving, or Independence Day, or other holidays I suppose.
@@jb888888888 Nobody in their right mind has an Easter Ham.
You have Christmas Ham, all the other holidays just have "Dinner".
@@MrJoeyWheeler I am cooking an Easter ham right now. Everyone I know has ham for Easter.
Putting 300 to many cloves when all you need is 3-5 for full ham
get the cheapest one and boil in slow cooker with coke with onions and brown sugar when you cook to bake after
The biggest mistake is buying a pig's hamhock; their butt quarter and leg...of a sentient individual...smarter than your 3 yr old child...
Can't never have ham if you have high blood pressure it's a no no
Aluuuuminum are you serious? You're British
I was taught to put the thermometer in the thickest part and away from the bone. Have I been doing this wrong forever?
It makes sense.
It is good as is no need to cook it again
I keep 2 to 3 hams in my freezer for year round use
Do they keep that long?

Confused. Much of the advice here conflicts entirely with what some of YT’s best chefs have to say on cooking a ham!
No pork on my fork
Most of these shots of ham looked unappetizing to say the least.
Only buy a precooked ham if you want all you guests to refuse to return next Easter.
All ham is cooked. If not it's just a chunk of raw meat.
