Calling Kroger Shoppers

We got a gift card for Kroger's but we don't shop there. As I need a baked ham for NY day, I need to know if anyone who does shop there (and eats ham) knows if they offer a gluten free baked ham. I already had to scratch my first idea of getting one from Honeybaked - wheat starch right on the label. Ay ya ya............it never ends.

Kroger does have an 800 number, don't have it on me, and they are really quite knowledgeable and helpful. I have rarely, if ever, had any problems with Kroger brand stuff.

Don't know if this helps or not. We have a Kroger nearby but I went to another regional chain and wrote down the the brands that they carried then looked them up on the web and called a few. Of the ones I was able to get good info. on, Hillshire Farms explained their labeling practices and said they'd clearly state any wheat on labels. I'd feel comfortable purchasing their product. But have to say that I didn't go back and check the ingredients. It's one to keep am eye out for. I ended up purchasing a Harper's Country Ham. I tried to get info on Tyson and Carolia Pride but was unsuccessful.

Ham is very, very easy. If it doesn't list wheat, it's gluten-free. That really is all you need to know.

The spiral cut hams are a lot like honey baked, but they have a packet of glaze that has wheat in it. The ham is fine the glaze is not. So you just have to make your own glaze.

My Kroger carries Hormel Cure 81 ham which is gluten free. I baked it in an oven bag and made a very simple glaze. I was amazed at how easy it was and everyone liked it better than our traditional HoneyBaked!

If you live in the south, you could probably just get some salt-cured ham. MUCH better than that "slimy" other stuff, in my opinion. I know the Kroger that I go to in Central KY has it...a holiday dinner must!

dragonmom, I would love your recipe for glaze! I have a gift certificate to honey baked hams but without the glaze, I don't like ham.

The glaze I used sounds almost too simple, but was sooo good - just mix 1-1/4 cups dark brown sugar with 1/4 dijon mustard. Here's how I prepped the ham:

Lightly score the ham in a diamond pattern.

Insert whole cloves in center of each diamond (optional). I didn't use them.

Place ham (cut side down) with 20-oz can of pineapple tidbits and juice in oven bag.

Set sealed bag in a foil-lined roasting pan and heat in 325 oven for about 1 hour.

Remove ham from bag, reserving pineapple and juice.

Place ham directly in foil-lined roasting pan and brush with prepared glaze.

(The glaze will naturally run downward as it heats, so I brush it extra thick on top.)

Continue to heat ham uncovered for 30 minutes.

Carve and serve, using reserved pineapple and juice to spoon over slices if desired.

The oven bag helps keep the ham moist, and lining the roasting pan with foil makes cleanup much easier as the glaze will permanently attach itself to the pan otherwise! Enjoy!!!

I found out Kroger has a spiral cut Brown Sugar Ham that is gluten free. That is what I'll use for NY day. It appears that the glaze is on this ham, yet it is still gluten free. If I find out otherwise after opening, I will make my own glaze - thanks for the recipe.

      @RMJ it makes sense as it’s something I’ve experienced more than once. Currently 24 weeks and baby is doing well! Will be seeking more medical advice today

      Doc says I have celiac, despite no GI symptoms?

      By trents · Posted

      Bright blood in the stool would indicate bleeding down at the lower end in the colorectal area as opposed to the small bowel below the stomach where celiac manifests damage to the villous lining. Are these blood stools persistent? It's not unusual for this to happen once in a while to most anyone when a small surface vessel breaks, kind of like a nose bleed. As Scott Adams said, you must continue to consume regular amounts of gluten if the specialist will be doing additional testing for celiac disease, which could include an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining.

      Gluten-free bread

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      Checkouts gluten-free recipes at twww.redstaryeast.com We tried a bread machine years ago and weren’t happy with results. Bread machines have pre-set rise & bake times.  Unfortunately, the program doesn’t adjust to slight differences when measuring, relative humidity or temperature of ingredients & in kitchens.  Lots of efforts for ONE odd- sized loaf that hard to cut into useable slices.  College-aged son found best use for bread machine was as heavy duty mixer that ‘kept dust in the box.’  He would pre-measure ingredients for 2-3 loaves & use machine mix up individual batches.      Since gluten-free bread needs  to rise only once, each recipe of dough went into a loaf pan. Pans sat counter to rise—time dependent of temp in kitchen. Then, baked in oven until he, not machine, decided it was done.     Took ~10 min extra up front to measure & mix additions but adds nothing to rise & bake times.     Loaves are great for slicing (Slice extra before freezing!). One mess to clean up, saves time & energy since you need to bake  as is half as often (If  you plan to bake lots more than bread, opt for KitchenAid/ heavy duty mixer instead.  Cover with dish towel to capture dust!)     Personally, I’m sure I had as a kid since I’ve never been a fan  of bread. .  Have been wrapping corn tortillas around things for 40+ years.  Can still get a dozen 12-pks of tortillas for same or less than price as 1 load of gluten-free bread. PLUS. the tortillas have more nutrients!
