hooney baked ham--worth the $$$

[2littleprincesses]

Has anyone had one of these? Is it worth the $$? I found a coupon and I could get an 8 lb ham for $43! At the grocery store I could get one for $10. Are they worth it?

Thanks

Definitely the best ham we have ever had. We have tried hams from other grocery stores and online,& tried cooking our own, Honeybaked was best by far.

I ordered a honey baked ham a few years ago and was not impressed. The ham was not frozen when it arrived. I called the company and they said I could re-freeze it as long as I used it within a month. I decided to serve it at a dinner a few weeks later. The ham was very fatty. I won't buy from them again. Next time I'll purchase the $10 ham from my grocery store.

I've had great luck with the Carando hams. they are in the grocery store and a little more expensive than some other hams. Definitely cheaper than the honeybaked hams though

Honey Baked Hams are SSOOOO worth the $$. We get one for every holiday.

It is the only ham I will eat. It you can afford the price it is so worth it.

I have NEVER had a fatty ham from Honeybaked, quite the opposite.

This is the ONLY ham that I will buy, well worth the money. Their turkey breast is awesome too!

Honeybaked Hams are a Christmas tradition in our family. I couldn't imagine Christmas without it.

I totally agree

Best I've ever eaten. We tried a Paula Deen Smithfield last night and it was really good but NOT Honeybaked. I paid about $12 less for the Smithfield and it was about $12 less good on a normally $45 ham.

eta: I have NEVER had a Honeybaked that was the least bit 'fatty' -au contraire, they are normally lean and really smooth. We get one about 4 times a year.

Honey-baked ham is.so.worth.it. My mom is a 'just get a cure 81 from the grocery store' kinda woman. I got a honey baked ham for Thanksgiving while they were here. It was the first time they'd had one. My dad told mom that he's never eating a Cure 81 for a major holiday again.

I have seen fat. It was at the bone and a very small amount, like under an ounce.

I love Honey Baked Ham. I much prefer to get them from the Honey Baked stroe versus ordering on line. When you order it, it comes frozen and seems to lose something. I agree they are pricey, but it is a special treat and you will use every ounce!

I love the HOneybaked Hams , We get them sometimes just for a dinner. We get them for every holiday and they are always good. We have a Honey Baked Ham in Arlington though so we always get them fresh from the store . So YUMMY I cant wait for Christmas. NOW for a big tip from my DH " Pick it up early or you will stand in the 3 hour line that wraps around the store back over the to the Red Lobsta and back around toward the parking lot of the TRU" LOL I told him not to wait till the day before Christmas to pick it up

We won't buy Homeybaked any more, either. Our last one was very expensive and very fatty. We were way more impressed with the Sam's club deluxe spiral sliced. You never know!

Love Honeybaked Hams. Get one every Christmas and Easter. I love that it is a "sure thing." Never had a bad experience in the 10 years we've purchased them.

Honey Baked hams are worth the money, I've never had a bad one. I always get them from the store, never had one shipped. It's what we have every Christmas and Easter.

I've always done a Carando Honey Cured ham. Today they're $1.99/lb. @ Stop and Shop.

YES!!! I have been agonizing over spending the money for one this year as we have taken a big hit on our income. But I buy a medium sized one and use it for 2 parties (one Sat and one Sun so it's more than fine the next day) and THEN use the bone to make bean soup which is a HUGE batch that I freeze and eat for months.

Needless to say, I am finding a way to afford a Honeybaked for Christmas this year!!!
