Half Bone-in York Ham

Our Half Bone-In York Ham is traditionally dry cured using time-honoured British methods. Made from outdoor-bred British pork and matured over several months, it develops a firm texture and rich, savoury flavour. Fully cooked and ready to enjoy, it’s best carved into thin slices to appreciate its distinctive character.

Each leg is carefully selected from outdoor-bred pigs, then dressed with a touch of saltpetre and covered in coarse salt. This curing process is repeated over several weeks before the hams are hung to mature in dedicated drying rooms. During this time, they develop the depth of flavour and satisfyingly firm texture that have long defined authentic York ham and earned it royal recognition.

Firmer and saltier than Wiltshire ham, York ham is prized for its bold, unsmoked profile. Ideal sliced wafer-thin for sandwiches, served as part of a cold platter, or presented simply with pickles and bread, this heritage ham remains a cornerstone of traditional English charcuterie.
