Notes
Each cut of ham is different, and requires a slightly different cooking time! The goal is to reach the 140°F internal temperature requirement without drying out the meat or over-heating it to the point of being tough and chewy.
- For whole precooked hams that weigh 10-18 pounds, cook at 325°F for 15-18 minutes per pound.
- For half precooked hams at 5-10 pounds, cook at 325°F for 18-24 minutes per pound.
- For spiral-cut precooked hams, cook at 275°F for 10 minutes per pound.
