The best places to order Christmas hams and turkeys in Singapore

You don’t want to fall foul of this Christmas tradition.

Nothing brings about more Yuletide cheer than a warm and intimate party with your family and friends at home, while enjoying a tasty and inviting meal.

And what’s a festive feast without a hearty turkey and ham (and some great bubbly, but that’s another story for another day)?

It goes without saying that you’ll need the grande dame of all Christmas feasts, the turkey, to be the centrepiece to your dining table. With so many options available for you to take home, we suss out a few unique picks that will not only fill tummies, but impress your guests as well.

If you are looking for a turkey that your party guests are sure to gobble up quickly, then you should check out The Meat Club’s Ranched Raised Young Whole Turkey ($60 for 4kg).

Sourced from the United States, they are ready for cooking following thawing. Their turkey is basted with gluten-free turkey broth and seasonings only with no added fats, oils, sugars or MSG.

Their Premium Honey Baked Ham ($65 for 1.5kg) with a natural honey glaze and Traditional Barossa Ham Bone In ($250 for 5kg) are also a must try.

They are both derived from the full muscle pork leg and their Traditional Barossa Ham Bone was even the winner of the 2019-20 Australian PorkMark Ham Award! As they are both pre-cooked, you simply need to heat it through before slicing and serving it to your guests.

Tip: Check out their cooking tips and recipe inspiration for a generous side-dish to pair with your Turkey this Christmas.

The poultry is then seasoned overnight before slowroasted to a gorgeous brown. Relish vibrant flavours of sweet, savoury, tangy, and a little kick to the taste buds in every bite.
