Yes, we are making Swedish Hams for Christmas!
What is a Swedish Ham? They are raw, mildly salted and cured, boneless, skin-on hams. We salt and hand-tie each ham in our kitchen so it is ready to take home and bake. Before baking, they look like this (Half size shown):

Cooking instructions are provided with each ham and they are also available on our website here. A fully cooked and glazed ham looks like this (Half size shown):
