[CnD] too much ham
This might be too obvious that I'm not thinking right, but here's the problem: I've got half of a ham, bone in. Because of the shape, I'm not sure where the bone is. The ham weighs approximately 12 pounds. It is not spiral cut. Due to the shape, I don't have anything big enough to put it in so that I can bake it. Any thoughts? --- Be positive!

Re: [CnD] too much ham
cut it in half and use half of it for soup. That's what I'd do with it. I love ham way too too much. ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
Re: [CnD] too much ham
Do you have a big enough crockpot to cook it in?

Re: [CnD] too much ham
Not at all a fan of soup. I thought about setting it onto a cookie sheet, although I don't have one with high sides, so the juices might make a messy oven. I'm not sure if wrapping it tightly in aluminum foil would be a solution, either. It's too big for my 5-quart crock pot or any other vessel that I have. I've never tried setting something big like this on a pizza pan that I have. The pan has holes all over it that allow steam or moisture to escape, allowing a pizza crust to get crisp rather than soggy. I could put a container on the rack below to catch drippings, maybe. But I don't want the ham to dry out. --- Be positive!

Re: [CnD] too much ham
I'd use a pan with sides, like a 9-by-13. I'd cover the bottom with foil. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On Behalf Of Charles Rivard via Cookinginthedark Sent: Saturday, January 31, 2015 11:15 AM To: cooking in the dark list Subject: [CnD] too much ham This might be too obvious that I'm not thinking right, but here's the problem: I've got half of a ham, bone in.

Re: [CnD] too much ham
Do you have a nine inch cake pan? That should work. I bake it for part of the time in aluminum foil then remove it.

Don't you still own an electric meat slicer? is there any! way! that you could cut that thing in half? I think those slicers will cut through bone?
