bone-in ham

Holiday pork centerpiece

A bone-in ham is a cut of pork from the hind leg that retains its bone, as opposed to boneless varieties where the bone has been removed.

The bone contributes flavor during cooking and helps the meat retain moisture: She scored the bone-in ham before glazing it.

Bone-in hams are traditional centerpieces for holiday meals.
