Costco has good hams. You can warm them up with or without the sugary glaze.

OP can do research, but grocery store ads don’t tell you how it’s going to taste or which less expensive hams are actually good. What’s strange about getting suggestions from people who have years of experience buying hams?
When I was a kid, the company my mom worked for gave beautiful hams to their employees every Christmas. They even gave them out to retired employees — and they’re not even in the food or hospitality industry! Because of that, I’m familiar with eating ham, but not buying it. I was interested in responses. I’ve bought Honey Baked before because that’s easy, but this year I have a guest who is diabetic and would appreciate a ham without a sweet glaze.
In that case, definitely go to Costco or Sam's and skip the glaze.
Thank you for this. Was going to go to honey baked. How far in advance can I buy a Costco ham?

Hams go on crazy sales normally. I have bought one just because I could not turn down a $5 ham. So clearly there is a wide range of prices.

I think the hams are like, impregnated with sugar. I’m sure not doing a glaze will help a little.
I needed a trigger warning for this post, lol. I’m going to need to have this phrase scrubbed from my brain if I’m ever going to enjoy ham again.
