Ham roasts are different from other types of ham like pre-cooked ham, spiral-cut ham, ham steaks, country ham, city ham, cured ham, whole ham, and half ham. Fresh Ham Roast is fresh because it is uncured, uncooked, and unsmoked… It has not been processed in any way. Most hams are cured, but ham roast isn’t cured at all… It’s “fresh” like a variety of other roasts: rump roast, pork shoulder roast, etc.

Ham Roasts are a less fatty cuts of pork, they aren’t naturally tender and it has longer meat fibers. It also has less fat marbling inside the meat than a pork shoulder and Boston butt roast. Ham Roast comes from the hind leg of pork, and it has a nice fat layer on the outer layer. Ham roasts can be purchased as boneless ham or bone-in ham.
