How to Throw a Holiday Party (Hint: Just Add Ham)

Forget about every canapé or thing-on-a-stick that you were planning to serve at your party. Forget about platters. Forget about, like, toothpicks. All you need is a smoked bone-in ham. Order a good one (dartagnan.com is a fine choice), score, glaze, and bake it. Put that ham on a big wooden board, provide a blade with which to slice it (a carving knife, say), and a vehicle with which to devour it (Martin’s potato rolls, ‘natch; order at potatorolls.com). Then watch your guests turn into a pack of wolves, leaving you with just a bone…and the memory of the best holiday party ever.
