Gammon in British English is the hind leg of pork after it has been cured by dry-salting or brining, [1] and may or may not be smoked. [2] Strictly speaking, a gammon is the bottom end of a whole side of bacon (which includes the back leg); ham is just the back leg cured on its own. [ 3 ]
When cooked, gammon is ham. Cooked ham joints are a popular dish around Christmas time, particularly in the Anglosphere and Northern Europe. Gammon can also served as gammon steaks, which are fried or grilled, and served in a similar manner to bacon. [31]
