The Honey Baked Ham Company emphasizes signature ham as the centerpiece of Easter celebrations. With research indicating that ham is the preferred choice for 80% of U.S. households during the holiday, the company continues to cater to this demand by offering its renowned Bone-In Half Ham, smoked for up to 24 hours and hand-glazed with a signature sweet and crunchy coating. This product has been a staple for over six decades.
Other highlights in the Easter menu include the Signature Honey Baked Ham Meal, which pairs the bone-in ham with three heat-and-serve sides such as Maple Sweet Potato Souffle or Double Cheddar Macaroni & Cheese. For those preferring boneless options, the Half Boneless Ham Meal offers a similar experience. Additionally, the menu introduces convenient Take & Bake items, including Ham & Cheddar Biscuits and sliders, which can be prepared in just 20 minutes. To assist hosts in creating memorable Easter meals, the Honey Baked Ham Company taps culinary expert Chef Tim Ziga to provide tips on selecting, preparing, and pairing the ham, as well as creative ideas for leftovers.
