Taste the difference of a Holiday Ham
Spiral-cut and slow-smoked over hickory embers for more than 28 hours, then honey glazed, one ham at a time. Shipped nationwide, straight to your door.
Why Holiday Ham
Not your grocery-store ham. Never was.
Every ham is made the slow way, seasoned and glazed by hand, and packed to arrive perfect. Here is what sets it apart.
28 Hours of Hickory
Slow-smoked over real hickory embers for more than 28 hours until the flavor runs deep. No shortcuts, no liquid smoke.
Hand-Glazed & Natural
100% natural and individually honey glazed, gluten free, with noticeably less salt than other gourmet hams.
No Cooking Required
Fully cooked and spiral-sliced. Bring it to room temperature and serve. No oven, no carving, no fuss.
Award-Winning
Named Best Mail Order Ham in the Country by Ladies Home Journal, Cuisine Magazine, and Real Simple.

Our Story
A Kansas City tradition, carried forward
Holiday Ham Company opened in 1988 and grew from mall kiosks into one of the nation's premier mail-order ham companies. In 2021, longtime partner Terry Franklin and his wife Tara took the reins, carrying the same recipe and the same promise into the next generation.
Terry knew the business long before he owned it. He supplied the dry ice that kept every order cold and worked side by side with the founders for years. When it came time for them to retire, he made sure nothing about the ham would change. Call today and you are still talking to Terry or Tara, not a call center.

Loved across the country
Truly the best ham on the planet.
Great flavor and not over salted. The bone-in ham was already spiral cut, a welcome find after opening the gold foil.
Top notch, and they do it all and do it right. Best ham ever. One bite and you are ruined for any other ham.

Beyond the Ham
Turkey, salmon, and the whole spread
The ham may be the star, but it has good company. Hickory-smoked whole turkey and honey glazed turkey breast, wild Alaskan sockeye salmon, and ready-to-gift combinations with povitica bread or French bean soup, all made with the same care.
