Here are our instructions for making a delicious HORMEL® CURE 81® boneless ham. Remove ham from the package and place largest cut surface face down in a baking pan. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan. Cover pan securely with nonstick foil. Bake at 325º F for 20 minutes per pound or until warmed through. FOR OPTIMUM TENDERNESS, DO NOT OVERCOOK!
We called it CURE 81® ham. Then we put a Curemaster in charge to personally oversee the entire ham-making process. Today, Brian Hendrickson holds this important title, making sure all CURE 81® hams are expertly hand-trimmed for leanness, carefully cured and smoked over natural hardwood chips and packaged for goodness.
Join Hormel Foods as we work to improve the lives of others with our annual HORMEL ® CURE 81® brand Hams for Hunger™ program. We’ve partnered with grocery retailers across the United States to donate over $13 million in hams since the program’s inception in 1989.
