You know, I don't think I have ever had baked ham.

I have had ham served in many ways, with pan fried being a favourite but I can't recall having it baked.

Picked up our Christmas ham from the smokehouse/butcher this morning. So it really is beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Aart, have never done it myself however a few years ago I bought a small ham at Aldi that was advertised as guaranteed crackling.

The skin did crackle so imagine ham skin could.

I have multiple ham, bacon, prosciutto skins in fridge and curing chamber. Do u have a preferred method for cooking them? Remember im new to cooking with camp ovens other than roasts on a wood fire while camping so u would have to walk me thru it. I dont bake my hams, i dry cure them using equilibrium method then smoke them or put in oven at low temps so fat doesn’t render out.

I've never tried it either.
My wife took the skin off a ham to bake.
Such a waste to throw the skin away.
The ham was lovely, but I asked her to just have cold ham next year.
I got grilled about not liking her ham.
Just a preference.
