Hormel Black Label Canned Ham
« on: December 25, 2018, 01:45:27 PM »
Is very tasty, so hard to find a canned ham that tastes good.

Baked one last night, with my glaze recipe, sans the cloves since I scored it and stuck in cloves.

I hate Wal-mart, but most Wal-marts carry them. Living about an hour from Hormel HQ, most grocery stores carry them here.

I am not real big on what midwesterners call ham, but I do like them. I try to keep one to three in the fridge all the time. If I get into one it becomes three meals a day for a week. Baked, sandwiches, dog treats, omelettes, fried rice, etc. I particularly like the low fat and the three year refrigerated shelf life.

Bone-in cured and smoked, is our typical ham of choice. Older folks are the ones who go for canned or deboned and formed ham. I see less and less variety of canned or formed ham every year at the grocery store and more space given to bone in hams.

I needed something to add variety to my menu. Stopped by a Walmart super store this evening and bought one. I haven't had ham for a long time -- looking forward to trying it.

At the request of my wife I am doing this again for Christmas Eve, local grocery store was sold out of Black Label Canned Ham, so I got another Hormel product, Dubuque Royal Buffet canned ham. Hormel eventually bought the rights to Dubuque ham when Dubuque Pack went tango uniform.

Speaking of ham, we had one of the best hams in our lives at Thanksgiving: the Costco Kirkland Signature MasterCarve applewood smoked ham.  I bought it on a whim since the MasterCarve are sold as half-hams, and I did not want to buy another humongous spiral-sliced ham.

I've had good luck with Aldi's bone-in half hams.  I prepare them using Alton Brown's "City Ham" recipe, or at least close to it.  It has been a couple of years, but IIRC it's coated with mustard (the cheap yellow kind), brown sugar, and gingersnap crumbs.  Then misted with bourbon, but I leave that out.

My glaze is the pine apple juice from a can of pineapple rings, 1/3 cup of dark brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground mustard, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon cumin. I don't glaze or add fruit until last 30 minutes of cooking, I baste every 10 minutes. Then I flip on the broiler to 500F, baste, broil for 5 minutes, baste again, broil for 5 minutes. Then I take the rest of the glaze, baste and let rest in covered in foil until the sugar hardens. I cook the ham initially covered in foil resting on some pine apple rings for moisture. Ham is so leaner these days, you need to wrap it to keep it from drying out. Used to be you'd have a nice 1/2-1" rind of fat around a ham.
