How to Carve a Spiral Ham
- Turn the ham on its bottom.
- Find the bone, and using a large knife, cut around the entire bone.
- There are natural breaks in the ham, generally where a line of fat is, cut through those breaks. Leave some ham on the bone and cut some slices to fit rolls.
- Place uncut ham and bone on platter and arrange the cut pieces around it.
