Roasted Ham

Big uncooked ham, bone in
(If a ham is cooked, all you have to do is wrap it in foil and heat it thoroughly.)

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Remove wrapping (notice cooking time recommendations) and wash ham.
• Wrap ham in foil and place in/on baking dish. There is no need to season a ham because it has already been cured and seasoned.
• Bake in hot oven. Follow cooking time recommended on ham packaging.

  I learned the value of cooking a big ham with bone in from my cousin Jean Jordan. Bone-in hams are usually one of the cheapest forms of meat, and there is much you can do with the ham once it is cooked. Watch for sales, and grab one when they are on sale. When done, slice and store in freezer bags for quick meals. This ham is great for any meal, even breakfast. Don’t throw out the ham bone. Put it in a crock pot with a cup of dried beans and four or five cups of water, and let it slow cook for several hours. The bone will fall apart and meat will season the beans. Lima beans, navy beans, or great northern beans are especially good cooked with a ham bone.
