Description

What is our Old Fashioned Gammon Joint?

Our Old Fashioned Gammon Joint is made from free-range Yorkshire pork leg. The leg is cured on the bone using our traditional method, then the bone is removed, the joint is tied and it is air-dried before sale. The joint you receive is therefore boneless and tied, not bone-in.

Gammon is cured pork sold raw for cooking; once cooked, it becomes ham. This joint can be roasted, braised or gently simmered, then glazed if you wish. Serve it hot for a Sunday roast, Christmas or Boxing Day, or enjoy the leftovers cold in sandwiches and salads.

Scoring the skin before roasting helps the fat render and the skin crisp.

For detailed timings and methods — including roasting, boiling, slow cooking and Ninja Foodi — see our How to Cook a Whole Gammon Joint guide.

Our gammon is air-dried alongside our Old Fashioned Yorkshire Bacon.

  8. Christine Houghton (verified owner) –

    Looked a lovely cut, and to be fair I didn’t soak it prior to cooking, as it never really seems necessary. I have had Grid Iron gammon and bacon before, but this particular gammon joint was extremely salty.

  9. Margaret McKenna (verified owner) –

    Looks nice and if it is anything like chickens looking forward to eating it over xmas

  10. Neil Hobbs (verified owner) –

    Favourite for family meals – the flavour is yummy, cuts well (both hot or cold) and everyone joins the queue for seconds!

  12. PETER ROBINSON (verified owner) –

    The gammon joint is fast becoming a family tradition – great flavour, and once cooked its great hot or cold……and don’t forget the great soup from the cooking liquor.

  13. Claire Duffin (verified owner) –

    Very tasty – would recommend
    One star missing – as you do not provide any cooking suggestions like you do on other meats

  14. Fiona Jamieson (verified owner) –

    I always buy my gammon joint from Grid Iron , it is always delicious, a family favourite what ever glaze I use. I simmer mine for an hour in fresh orange juice with cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg, then finish off with a marmalade glaze studded with orange slices and cloves. A firm favourite and tastes amazing.

  15. Philip Baldock (verified owner) –

    Really moist and succulent gammon. The beauty of the old breeds is the fat which helps keep the meat moist whilst cooking.
