Not for pulled pork and bbq. This would be for a baked ham to eat as
slices for a couple of meals. Leftovers used as ham sandwiches and ham hash. My store has 2 kinds on sale (? .97/lb). Either butt or shank. Which would you choose for my plans or does it even make a difference? When baking a ham, I like to use cloves, then a can of crushed pineapple with brown sugar added. When served, I also have a raisin sauce on the plate. Any opinions today are welcome. I'll be at the store tomorrow early am and decide if I want one at all. Thanks :-D |

Infusing meats with WATER (very heavy, 8lbs a gallon, 69lbs a cu ft!) is an old way of bolstering meat processing plants' corporate PROFITS!! They do it with many Thankgiving turkeys as well. Saline injected meat slugs, I call them! I buy B&G whole boneless hams at my local grocers (Schnucks) and have them slice it for me free. I just bought one at the Easter discounted price (normally like $4.99/lb) with an additional $25 purchase. They will have hams on sale after Easter too, I may get another one! I portion them up and freeze most of it, taking portions out to thaw as I use them. YUM! Part of my "Monk's Breakfast" as Bryan tried to perjoratively/speciously refer to it in his raging NPD way.

Either butt or shank. Which > would you choose for my plans or does it even make a difference? Serious Eats says: These days, hams are sold split into two halves, the shank end and the butt end (often labeled the sirloin end). The major difference between the two is that the shank end tends to contain a higher ratio of fat (which I like), and is significantly easier to carve, having only a single, straight bone to contend with. The butt end, on the other hand, tends to be leaner, which may be desirable for some people. It's also got a tricky little number known as the aitch-bone to contend with. Any butcher will tell you that the oddly shaped pelvic bone is one of the more difficult to work your knife around. Unless you are an expert carver or don't mind getting in there with your fingers, you'll want to opt for the shank-end cut. > > When baking a ham, I like to use cloves, then a can of crushed > pineapple with brown sugar added.

I used to make picnic hams, the foreleg and much smaller than a ham, WAG seven pounds or so. I baked them for a while to soften the fat, removed the tough skin, crisscrossed the fat with knife slashes, cloves at the intersections and then brown sugar and honey. A fabulous meal. Sadly, the small grocery chains of ten or twenty stores per chain have all gone away and been replaced by one giant chain for three million people. I haven't see a picnic ham in years. :-( |

I always buy the butt half, usually costs about 25¢/lb more but contains more usable meat and much less waste, that's why it costs more. I've never had a problem carving the butt half and most these days don't contain the aitch bone, and even if it does it's very easy to remove. If you ask the butcher will remove all the bone, only takes 30 seconds... then you can stuff, roll, and tie the ham making it very easy to serve. However this time of year the markets have fresh ham, the king of all roasts... get a butt half, you'll love it... and if you can't finish it all, unlike cured ham fresh ham freezes very well. You can have the butcher bone fresh ham too, it's wonderful stuffed and rolled. Fresh ham bones are great for making Chinese pork stock with ginger, garlic, white pepper, celery, onions, and cabbage. Fresh ham makes for the best chicerones, much better than pork shoulder, and with the meat there's no comparison. Fresh ham is superb for hot sandwiches and even better for cold sandwiches. If you've never eaten roast fresh ham you've missed out on one of the wonders of the world. |

I like the casserole that's made with peaches. Tried to make it once (years ago) and mine tasted awful, not even close to the one I liked so much. Didn't try it again. -- sf |

I've been looking for some sort of non-sweet thing to do with ham (just to change things up a bit from plain ham), but I haven't found anything really satisfactory. Although lately, in a nod to my childhood experience, when I make a ham sandwich I sometimes put just a tiny pinch of brown sugar smeared into the mustard. Cindy Hamilton |

I have mentioned this here before I think, but I make a Maple-Brined Pork Loin which might work well with ham. Near the end of roasting I cover it with a mix of oil, maple syrup and mustard. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |

One thing about covering ham with anything sweet - various glazes, the pineapple and brown sugar thing, etc. That only coats the outside of a ham. You still get pure ham after the first slice or two. That coating doesn't soak in beyond the first slice or two. I like the pineapple and brown sugar thing (plus a pinch or two of powdered clove). Mixed with the ham drippings, it's a very good taste. That doesn't mean the whole ham has that taste. |

I assumed she was talking about the salted dry cured hams. You would certainly soak one of them overnight but I would never boil it afterwards. Once it's soaked overnight, boiling would just leach out all the good ham flavor. |

No reason why something like that wouldn't work for ham too. Add some mustard or spices to change it up. -- sf |

I can view and see one of your Tinypic pics, but not the other!! Tinypic .com is SUCH a PITA for me like that!! :-( I used to use it all the time until it started flaking out for me. Now I host pics in Facebook. Seems to work better. John Kuthe... |
