Spiral Cut Ham Half vs Marketside Brown Sugar Spiral-Cut Ham

Buy the Stoltzfus half if you want a bone-in, old-fashioned ham for a holiday table and enough meat for leftovers. Buy the Marketside ham if you want a smaller boneless ham that is already glazed and needs no carving around a bone. The Stoltzfus ham is the bigger, more traditional cut and owners call it tender and better than supermarket ham, though some find the clove seasoning strong. The Marketside ham is leaner, boneless and easy to slice, and its large rating base is solid but not outstanding.

• Choose the Stoltzfus spiral cut ham half if you are feeding a group, want bone-in flavor and pan drippings, and plan on leftovers.
• Choose the Marketside boneless spiral-cut ham if you want a smaller, fully cooked boneless ham with brown sugar glaze already on it.
