Frequently asked questions about ham carving
What does a professional ham carver do?
A professional ham carver slices the ham by hand into thin slices so it keeps all its aroma, texture and flavour during the event.
What type of ham do you use?
We can carve the ham provided by the client or advise on buying Iberian ham according to the budget.
How much ham is needed per person?
As a reference, calculate between 40 and 80 grams per guest depending on whether the ham is part of an abundant catering service or not.
Does the service include stand and utensils?
Yes. We bring a professional ham stand, knives and all the material needed for a perfect carving service.
How long does the ham carving service last?
It depends on the size of the piece and the number of guests, although it usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours.
Do you work at weddings and corporate events?
Yes. We offer ham carving service for weddings, communions, corporate events, openings and private celebrations.
What is the difference between Iberian ham and Serrano ham?
Iberian ham comes from Iberian breed pigs and stands out for its marbled fat and intense flavour. Serrano ham offers excellent value for money and a milder taste.
Is the whole piece used?
Yes. Practically the whole ham is used. Different parts are served as slices, small cubes or used for culinary preparations.
Can you supply the ham?
Yes. If you wish, we can supply a quality ham adapted to the type of event.
Can it be combined with the barbecue?
Yes. Ham carving works very well as a welcome appetizer before the Argentinian barbecue.
