How to Cut a Whole Ham or Shoulder

If you have received a whole leg of ham or shoulder as a gift and want to bone and slice it to vacuum-pack and extend its shelf life, you should know that at Enrique Tomás, we can also do this.

In this case, the price does not depend on the type of ham but on the type of cut you want:

  • Hand or Knife Cut
  • Machine Cut

If you bring us your ham piece, we will prepare it for you in packs of slices, chunks, and shavings so that you can enjoy every last piece of cured meat. Since we will vacuum-pack it, you won't have to worry about it going bad.

Just open a pack when you want to savor some ham, let the slices separate naturally, and enjoy!

Therefore, the question is not how to bone the ham but where to do it.

Come to Enrique Tomás, and make sure we prepare your ham or shoulder piece in the best way!
