Is the ham already cooked and glazed, or do I do that?

The ham arrives cured and cooked, skinned and scored by hand, and the Davidson plum glaze is made and supplied with it, so the glazing is the part you do. Thaw the ham in the fridge for around 48 hours, brush it generously with the glaze, and bake it in a moderate oven, brushing again once or twice as it goes. It is the enjoyable part of cooking a Christmas ham, and it means the glaze comes out of your own oven dark, glossy and sticky rather than reheated.

How many people does a 3kg ham feed?

A 3kg ham serves a crowd as part of a Christmas spread with other dishes. As a rough guide, allow about 150-200g per person when there is a full table of sides, and a little more if you want leftovers, which with a ham you generally do.

How long does the ham keep, and can I freeze the leftovers?

Keep the ham frozen until you need it, then allow around 48 hours to thaw in the fridge and use it within the period shown on the label. Once thawed it should not be refrozen whole. Carved leftover ham freezes well in portions if you wrap it properly, and it is excellent in sandwiches, in a pea and ham soup, or chopped through a pasta for days afterwards.

Mudgee ham, glazed dark with native Davidson plum and honey, sweet, tart and sticky enough to need a napkin.

Is it really Christmas without a beautiful glazed ham taking pride of place on the table?

We've given this much-loved Christmas tradition a distinctly Australian twist with a gorgeousDavidson plum glaze that's sweet, tangy and just a little bit different.

Our generous 3kg ham comes from Mudgee Meats and arrives already skinned and scored, so you can skip one of the fiddliest parts of preparing a traditional Christmas ham.

The glaze is made by us using native Australian Davidson plum, honey, brown sugar, Dijon mustard and a blend of spices. Davidson plum has a naturally tart, almost berry-like flavour that balances the sweetness of the honey and sugar beautifully, creating a rich, glossy glaze.

We've deliberately left the final glazing and baking to you, because there's something rather lovely about bringing a freshly glazed ham out of the oven on Christmas Day.

Simply allow approximately 48 hours to thaw in the fridge, brush with the supplied glaze and bake.

Preparation Instructions

Thaw in the fridge 2 days prior to cooking.
Remove ham from the fridge 1 hour prior to baking.
Preheat the oven to 160C (140C fan forced)
Sit the ham in a baking dish on a rack, pour 1 cup of water into the base.
Bake for 60 minutes
While the ham is baking, place the glaze into a small pot onto the stove and heat
Remove the ham from the oven, baste generously and return to the oven for a further 45 minutes, basting at 15 minute intervals.
Rest before carving, serve with the remaining glaze on the side.

* This can be done a day in advance. Cook per the instructions above, spray a little oil onto some cling wrap to prevent the glaze sticking, cover and store in the fridge. To reheat the ham, remove from the fridge for an hour, place on a wire rack over a baking pan with water underneath. Reheat in a low oven on 120C to avoid burning the glaze, heat until warmed through. Reheat unused glazed in a microwave on low for 30 seconds.

Serving Size, Spice & Suggestions

1 x 3kg Ham leg
400ml Spiced Davidson Plum Glaze

A ham this size needs about 48 hours to thaw in the fridge, so move it from the freezer to the fridge two days before you plan to serve it. For Christmas Day lunch, that means Tuesday 22 December. Keep it in the fridge, not on the bench, and do not thaw it in water. Everything else in our Christmas range only needs an overnight thaw, the ham is the one item worth putting in your calendar.
