Boning a ham

Home grown, home cured ham.
YUMMY
It has been curing for 18 months. We didn’t exactly mean to age it so long, but we had quite a few and were only getting through them slowly - getting them out and slicing them was a bit of a job and we kept forgetting about them.
Not long ago we got a super electric slicer, this does mean the dried ham has to be boned which is a bit of a death defying job on such solid ham, but makes the whole thng easier once that is done.
We have not tried curing one with the bone out, but apparently they are more likely to go off during the curing process than with the bone in.
