Does anyone know if you can freeze a honey-baked ham until Christmas?

1. I was told by a butcher once

That freezing ham is not recommended due to its high water content.

I’ve never frozen a whole ham, but I’ve frozen sliced ham like from an Easter ham, and it turned out fine.

4. Maybe if I just thaw it at room temperature then heat it up for eating?

5. I was given a frozen 1/2 ham a few years ago for Christmas

It thawed and cooked fine.

6. No problem. Just take it out at least a day before and let it defrost slowly at room temperature and

then bake as normal. It will be delicious. I'm 72 and have cooked a lot of hams, frozen before and regular.

8. I freeze hams all the time

If it's spiral sliced or sliced it may get a little bit drier when you heat it up but it's ham - salty good pork - it'll be fine.

11. When you reheat in the oven in the oven do a baste.

Coke or ginger ale, dark brown sugar and a dab of dijon mustard. Warm ham up in slow oven, basting often, at end turn up to higher temp to finish.

9. My ex-chef husband said: Probably.

Now that’s helpful info from a pro. 🙄
