Hot or cold, ham is just fine. We prefer the Fricke’s brand. I bake it per directions; 12 minutes per pound at 325*. Wrapped in foil, covered with brown sugar and fruit juice- pineapple, orange, apple, Dr Pepper, Coke or Root Beer. Sides are usually baked beans , tater salad. Make ham sandwiches from leftovers or ham salad. He’ll, I couldn’t be no Muslim- pork is too good so many ways.
