Click on a section to find out more about the different cuts that come from each one, and what to do with them..

Leg
The leg region is where ham comes from. Most of the ham you’re likely to encounter is the already-cured, pre-cooked sort, that deep rosy-pink stuff you’re used to popping into sandwiches, or the big hunk o’ ham that gets glazed sticky-sweet for a holiday roast. Should you happen to find yourself with something labeled fresh ham, it can be prepped in pretty much the same way as a shoulder/butt cut.
