the easiest Easter ham--(plus leftovers!)

Craving an Easter meal that feels a bit special? Our chef-carved dinner hams are not only delicious, they're super easy to make. Plus, what’s better than ham leftovers?

chef carved hams--easy as 1, 2, 3

Follow these three easy steps and you’re on your way to ham nirvana.

step one: unwrap

First, remove that big, 3 lbs, beautiful ham from it’s packaging and put it on your favorite baking pan. Cover it with a lid or seal with aluminum foil.

Your ham comes to you fully cooked, all you need to do is heat it up! Just preheat your oven to 325 degrees and bake the 3 lbs ham for about 30 minutes. Careful not to overcook, oven temps can vary about 100 degrees.

step three: serve

The time has come! Grab your most beautiful serving platter and ceremoniously place the ham on the table. Pretend to look tired and your family will think you’ve been working on it all day. You might even get out of clean up duty.

our chef carved hams are the dish that keeps on giving!

Here are a couple of recipes to make with those glorious leftovers.

we’re putting the “ease” in easter

Easter hits different when it’s easy. This year, let’s kick back with family and delicious food. Try our sliced Brown Sugar Molasses Ham as a low-key, yet tasty alternative to the traditional oven ham. It’s hand-trimmed fresh pork slow-cured with all-natural spices, honey, and maple, perfect on sandwiches, paninis, or straight out of the fridge (we don’t judge). Plus, it’s free of nitrates, nitrites, gluten, and hormones. Visit your favorite deli counter to get it sliced fresh, the way you like it.
