5 Glazes For Your Easter Ham


There’s nothing more classic than an Easter ham.

At Spragg’s we offer our customers both smoked and un-smoked ham. We brine the meat with a salt solution that also contains sugar and spices. The pork legs are brined for two-weeks before each leg is put into a cotton netting and is hung in the smokehouse. The legs are smoked and cooked to 57 C over 8-10 hours and then cooled. After cooling overnight, we cut them with a meat saw into 2-4 pieces so that we can sell hams that vary in weight from 3-18 pounds. For those who want the ham flavor, but not the smoked process, we also sell a brined pork leg roast that has not gone into the smokehouse. We call these country rolls. 

Be sure to reserve your Easter ham in advance by contacting us by p: 403.378.3800 or e: meatshop@spraggsmeatshop.com.
