*All recommendations are based on current USDA guidelines.

How to Cook Frozen Ham

Wrap the ham tightly in foil, place in an oven-safe casserole dish (deep, because the ham will be juicy!) ham in the oven, and cook it until its internal temperature meets or exceeds the following:

Cooked Ham (vacuum-packed at the plant) — 140 F
Cooked Ham (repackaged by you or someone else) — 165 F
Uncooked Ham (labeled fresh, cook-before-eating or uncured) — 145 F
