COOK TIME
4 Hr 40 Min

No, this isn't a Dr. Seuss recipe! Green ham was what early Southern settlers called ham, or leg of pork, that was fresh, not cured.

What You'll Need

  • 1 15- to 17-pound ham
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place ham skin side up in aroasting pan that has been lined with aluminum foil.
     
  2. In small bowl, combine the garlic powder, salt, and pepper; mix well and rub over entire surface of ham.
     
  3. Bake 4-1/2 to 5 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted in center of the ham registers 170 degrees F.
     
  4. The skin will brown and separate from the meat. Slice and serve.
