How much spiral ham do I need per person?
Chef's answer
For a bone-in spiral-cut ham, you need to account for the large bone that's making up a good bit of weight in the total you see printed on the label. (Save that bone to make the best soup.) Estimate 3/4 to 1 pound per person for a bone-in ham.
