I'm heading to PA. Friday to visit family and this will be my contribution to the party. This started off as a 25 lb ham. My dad bought it and had it boned. I prefer it with the bone however he won't listen.
25 lb ham
2 big heads of cabbage
two god sized onions
I cheat and use the frozen greens
2 lbs each kale, mustard and collard greens. no turnip tops this year but I usually use them as well. (gives it a little bite)
4oz mustard seed
4 oz crushed red pepper
4 oz celery seed
couple shakes of black pepper
pint of good bourbon. (more if you don't have to work the next day)
I bake mine, have for years. This one will go at 325 untill about 7am tomorrow. Turns out great. Stuffed ham on wonder bread for lunch Thursday. :drool:

How long do you bake it? I'm old school, so I boil mine (outside TYVM) but I love my food processor when it comes to chopping the greens.:yay:

I always boiled my ham now. Mom talked me into baking one year and I will never boil it again. It is less of a mess and cleanup is easier. The flavor inside the foil remains with the ham, therefore everything inside your house doesn't have the stuffed ham aroma. When I worked I could always tell who boiled a stuffed ham because you could smell it on their clothes....seriously.

It's kind of a guessing game since they tell you 20 minutes per pound. I never understood if that meant with or without stuffing...
Mine went from 9 last night to about 6 this morning and it is cooked through. Better to run a little over than under. I do it in an electric roaster.

Corned Ham?
Baked sounds like an interesting idea. I'll try it.

To make a TRUE SOMD Stuffed Ham it must be boiled. Baking is not the correct way. When you boil it there is a specific step in the recipe that gives extra flavor and you can't do this when baking. This is why most of the commercially prepared stuff is just bland to me. I have been making it for 15 years, started out with my Grandma. I have gotten rave reviews from whoever has tried it and likes stuffed ham. Also anybody using frozen stuff, you might as well just buy it commercially then. A stuffed ham uses FRESH greens. I also have never put celery in mine. It cooks better with the bone and is much easier to stuff. I'm not sure when the de-boning became popular but it produces a lesser end product IMO. I cook mine an hour for every 5lbs. Usually about 4-5 hours. It is always done and it tends to hold it's shape a little better and is easier to slice and doesn't crumble all up.

I am thinking about selling it this year. Probably $8 a lb. I promise after you try it, you won't go back to McKay's or Lenny's or anywhere else. I put one ingredient in my ham that no commercial processor can L.O.V.E.

Ham is best baked with brown sugar glaze and served with peach preserves. Try it, it is much better than that nasty, too spicy stuffed ham.
