  • Ham: From Frozen Solid to the Table in 3 Hours

    Sliced smoked ham on a platter with a decorative candle in the background.

    This ham was in the freezer for awhile. Every time I thought about cooking it, I thought of the hours of thawing it in the fridge and how to cook it. After all that thought, my motivation vanished and it stayed in the freezer.

    This past weekend, I made the decision to throw all caution to the wind and just cook it…frozen…I took that sucker out of the plastic wrap, threw it on a pan, and stuck it in the oven at 325 degrees for about 2 hours 45 minutes. It was perfect! No water, no seasoning, nothing. Just sollidly frozen ham in the pan. I did cover it with aluminum foil. I didn’t even check on it while it was cooking. It was delicious! This will probably be my go-to ham cooking way from now on.
