Cured pork ham roast....don't know how to cook it?
i might have not asked it right before....it is a cured pork ham roast...we bought half a pig and i have two of them....i don't know how to cook it....it is way too big to put in a crock pot....i sure would appreciate any advice you have...thanks in advance :)
Answers: I just bake my cured hams in a 325 F oven about 20 minutes per pound to get the extra moisture out. Sometimes I stick some whole cloves in the skin. Sometimes I even put a glaze on it. For the glaze, I just take some brown sugar and ground cloves and stir in either orange juice or pineapple juice. Then I put some glaze on the ham for about the last hour of baking. Then heat the rest and serve it with the sliced ham.
You might want to slice off some ham steaks before you bake either piece of ham. Then you can broil or grill them when you want to enjoy them.
Don't forget sweet potatoes or yams taste great with ham. If it's cured, you don't need to cook it, just warm it up, slice it so it heats faster, cover it so it doesn't dry out. Pig is the nastiest animal in the world try lamb or beef
