Our take on the Sugardale Shank Portion Smoked Ham

Sugardale Shank Portion Smoked Ham is a fully cooked, smoked pork shank cut, sold fresh and ready to heat and serve. The shank portion is the lower, bone-in end of the ham, so it carries more bone and connective tissue than a butt or whole ham but delivers deep smoky flavor and a classic ham texture. It suits small households and budget-minded cooks who want ham for dinner plus leftovers for sandwiches, soup and beans.

Questions and answers

Is a shank portion ham worth buying?
Yes if you want smoky ham flavor and plan to use the bone for soup or beans. If you want mostly lean slices, a butt portion or boneless ham gives more meat per pound.
How is a shank portion different from a butt portion?
The shank is the lower leg end, with more bone and connective tissue and a stronger smoked flavor. The butt portion is leaner and easier to slice but costs more per pound.
Is it fully cooked?
Yes. Sugardale shank portion hams are smoked and fully cooked, so you only need to reheat to serving temperature. Follow the label's time and temperature for the weight.
How many people does it serve?
Plan on roughly 1/3 to 1/2 pound per person, more if you want leftovers. A shank portion typically feeds a small gathering with some ham left over.
How should I store and reheat it?
Keep it refrigerated and use within the date on the package, or freeze portions for longer storage. Reheat covered at a low oven temperature so the outside does not dry out before the center is hot.
When is it cheapest?
Prices drop around Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas, when supermarkets run ham promotions. Outside holidays, compare per-pound prices across stores rather than package price.
