Best Answer

After removing the ham from its packaging, place it in a clean tea towel or ham bag that has been soaked in cold water and a dash of vinegar (brown or white) The tea towel or ham bag must be moist (not dripping wet) and cover the entire ham. As long as you replace the towel or ham bag every day or two the ham will keep for around 2 weeks. Obviously use your own judgement, if it smells bad don't eat it!

How do you know cooked ham is bad?

The way to know if cooked ham is bad is by how long it has been in the fridge or freezer. In the fridge, cooked ham can last 7 to 10 days. In the freezer, it will last 6 to 8 months. Cooked ham that is bad will also develop a bad smell and may appear slimy to the touch.

How long will cooked ham last in the fridge?

AnswerCooked ham has been cured before so it can be left in the fridge for 4 - 5 days, but to be on the safe side it's best to have your ham, then cut off what you may want from the next nights meal and then slice the rest of the ham up and freeze. Don't throw that bone out! Make a nice split pea and ham soup and you can add diced left over ham to put in with it. You can also slice the ham thinner to make sandwiches. You also have the choice to mince the ham (if you have a meat grinder) or food processor (freeze it in a Glad bag and press air out) and make Hoagie sandwiches at a later date. Sweet pickled relish and mayonnaise goes great with either sliced ham or ground ham.
