Step 1 - Place ham skin side up. Then run a small sharp knife under the rind around the bottom (opposite end to hock) and each side of the ham to about halfway up. Peel the rind back.

Step 2 - Run the tip of the knife around the bone, on the underside of the ham. Begin to slice on a slight angle down to the bone.  Step2BLACKsml.png
Step 3 - Run your knife lengthways along the bone to remove slices. Continue to slice towards the hock.  Step3BLACKsml.png
Step 4 - Continue slicing down to the bone, working your way around the ham. When you've reached about a third of the way up, you can remove the bone by making a few short cuts at the joint.  Step4BLACKsml.png
Step 5 - To keep your ham fresh, fold rind back over exposed surface, place in a Ham Bag and store in the fridge.  Step5BLACKsml.png
