Mackenzie Artisan Spiral Sliced Ham vs Spiral Cut Ham Half

Both are bone-in, spiral-cut, fully cooked hams in the 7-9 lb range, so the choice comes down to curing and flavor. The Mackenzie ham is cured with real Vermont maple syrup and smoked over corn cob and maple hardwood, with a maple sugar glaze included; it is the more distinctive, gift-ready option and carries a 4.7 rating from 142 buyers. The Stoltzfus half is a straightforward smoked half with glazing packets, and owners consistently call it tender and better than supermarket ham, though some find the seasoning pack heavy on cloves. Buy the Mackenzie for a centerpiece with a maple profile; buy the Stoltzfus for a simpler, well-liked half.

• Choose the Mackenzie Artisan Spiral Sliced Ham if you want a maple-cured, hardwood-smoked centerpiece with a maple sugar glaze and a strong buyer rating behind it.
• Choose the Stoltzfus Spiral Cut Ham Half if you want a plainly smoked, tender half with glazing packets and owners who rate the taste above supermarket ham.
