These ham brands use real, whole muscular pork, not reconstituted or packaged meat.
Real boneless ham is superior in every way to the typical, over-processed, mechanically scavenged meat you see in stores. Ham made from actual muscle meat looks like meat, not reconstituted dough that has been shaped into the shape of a ham and filled with additives and preservatives. Real ham comes from the pork leg and has incredible taste, texture and flavor. Of course, higher quality ingredients come with a higher price tag, but it’s definitely worth it. Here are seven of the best ham brands made from real muscle meat; perfect for a special meal, sandwiches, casseroles and more.
Wild Fork Foods Boneless Berkshire Smoked Ham
Buyers are delighted with the exceptional taste and quality of Wild Fork Foods Boneless Berkshire Smoked Ham, made from 100% purebred Berkshire pigs. “This was the centerpiece of our Christmas dinner,” one fan wrote in the reviews. “I wanted a heritage breed ham, not a standard commercially raised ham, and I can say that this type of ham is now in my rearview mirror! This ham was beautifully smoked, and not overly salty, which contributed to the wonderful tender, flavorful meat the four of us devoured!”
Niman Ranch Spiral Sliced Bone-In Ham with Honey Glaze
Niman Ranch Spiral Sliced Bone-In Ham with Honey Glaze is a premium pre-sliced ham with a beautiful sweet and smoky flavor. “The ham was absolutely phenomenal. Everyone at the table was blown away by the flavor and softness. I made a pineapple sauce to drizzle it with,” said one shopper.
True Story Black Forest Cured Ham Snack Packs
True story has some great ham options, both at the deli counter and in the refrigerated aisles. We love Black Forest Ham for sandwiches, and Black Forest Raw Ham Snack Packs are the perfect lunch or on-the-go snack. “My toddler is obsessed with her ‘circle meat’! She eats them on their own as a snack or puts them on a Hawaiian bun for lunch,” said one Target shopper. “The quality is still excellent, the freshness and individual packaging are even better. »
Dietz and Watson boneless raw ham
Dietz and Watson Off the Bone prosciutto is another deli counter staple that we love for sandwiches. The texture is leaner and a little drier than other hams, making it perfect with a heavily sauced sandwich or for a snack on its own.
Stoltzfus Meats Boneless Smoked Ham
Stoltzfus Meats Boneless Smoked Ham is a lean, hand-trimmed and delicious wood-smoked ham made entirely from whole muscles. “Tasty and delicious. Not too salty. Just perfect. We’ve been buying these since 1980 and will be buying more in the years to come,” said one satisfied buyer.
Jones Dairy Farm Hickory Smoked Bone-In Ham
Jones Dairy Farm Hickory Bone-In Smoked Ham is brined with brown sugar and smoked with real hickory. “This ham was perfect for our family,” said one Costco shopper. “Juicy, lightly smoked, and not too fatty. I like the ability to cut slices to our preference rather than the thin spiral slices that I find dried out. The leftover bones were used for the soup. I highly recommend this brand to people looking for an alternative to sugary spiral-sliced hams.”
Frick’s Quality Meats Hickory Smoked Bone-In Ham
at Frick Quality Meats Hickory Bone Smoked Ham is made with natural juices, cured with real cane sugar and slow cooked for 12 hours. “It’s not easy to find a good quality ham anymore. Many are pumped with water and salt. So when I found this ham, I was delighted to discover that it wasn’t as high in sodium and its own natural juices. The whole ham made a lovely centerpiece at Easter and I will be buying it again for Christmas this year!” » said one buyer.
