Kurobuta is the Japanese term for “black hog” and refers to animals of the Berkshire variety.

These animals are treated humanely and are raised on small family farms without hormones using a natural slow feed process.

HOW TO PREPARE IT RIGHT

Preparing half bone-in hams is simple and straightforward. One key step is to fully thaw your ham before cooking. Place the ham on a tray and thaw in the refrigerator. Plan ahead, since a half ham can take 2 to 3 days to thaw.

To cook, heat the oven to 325°F. 

Set ham, flat side down in a roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet. Place in the heated oven. Leave in oven until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F when checked in the center of its thickest section. 

Pull the ham from the oven, cover loosely with foil and let it rest for 15 to 30 minutes.
