Can you Freeze Leftover Cooked Ham?

Smoked and cooked hams take center stage on many different holiday dinner tables. If you have leftovers, they can easily be stored in the fridge for up to a week. However, if you find yourself with an abundance of cooked or smoked ham that you know you won’t use up in a week, you can keep it in the freezer. Keep in mind though, freezing cooked ham will slightly alter it’s texture but not enough that you will notice it much. Proper storage will allow you and your family to enjoy delicious leftover ham for weeks or months.

How to Freeze Leftover Cooked Ham

Freezing leftover ham doesn’t have to be complicated. Just make sure you use proper storage techniques when doing so. If you plan on using the leftover ham for certain recipes, portion it up prior to freezing it. You can dice it up for casseroles or soups, slice the entire ham or break it into small chunks. It all depends on how you wish to consume it later.

Once you have portioned your ham, place it into airtight freezer bags. Portion it up and label the bags with the date you put it in the freezer. Place the bags with ham in a larger airtight freezer container to protect it from freezer burn and voila, your leftover ham is stored properly.

There is quite literally a ham recipe for every meal of the day, including side dishes and more. Just make sure if you are freezing your cooked ham, you take the proper precautions to make it easier and avoid freezer burn.
