Christmas Ham Cooking in the DCB: Tips and Tricks

[corichef]

I know you can cook a small turkey in the DCB, how long and at what temp would you do a ham? What do you think would be the biggest size you could cook in it?:chef:

I guess you'd cook it the same temp as the recipe says. One of the guests at my show yesterday said thet she cooked a ham in her last week and that is was delicious!

Most hams are already cooked. So you just need to heat it through. I do mine with the cut side down in an oven at 325.

Hi there! Yes, you can definitely cook a ham in the Deep Covered Baker (DCB). The cooking time and temperature will depend on the size of the ham. For a 3-4 pound ham, I would recommend cooking it at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes per pound. So for a 4 pound ham, you would cook it for about 80-100 minutes. For a larger ham, I would recommend cooking it at 325 degrees for about 15-20 minutes per pound.As for the biggest size you can cook in the DCB, it can comfortably fit a 8-10 pound ham. However, if you have a larger ham, you can cut it into smaller pieces and cook it in batches. The DCB is a versatile tool and can handle a variety of sizes and types of meats. Happy cooking!
