Hickory Farms leads the nation as one of the largest specialty food retailers and has gained a large portion of its fame from its mail-order marketing campaigns. Hickory Farms specializes in gift baskets, smoked cheeses, meats and treats and its products are most often seen gracing tables during the holiday season. Perhaps best known for its line of succulent hams, Hickory Farms features large, family-sized hams such as the Black Forest, Honey Gold and Bourbon Praline Spiral Sliced Ham. These hams come pre-cooked and are delivered frozen, so be sure to leave plenty of defrost time before attempting to reheat.
Instructions
1. Defrost your ham in the refrigerator for 36 to 48 hours before cooking.
2. Remove the outer packaging on the ham and cut off the netting. Discard in the trash.
3. Place your Hickory Farms' ham in the special warming bag provided with the ham.
4. Heat your oven to 325 degrees for 15 minutes before placing the bag in the oven.
5. Place the warming bag in a shallow roasting pan with the flat side of the ham facing down.
6. Cook the ham for 10 minutes per pound until the internal temperature measures 120 degrees F.
7. Heat any sauce received with the ham inside of a microwave dish for 60 seconds when ready to serve.
