Honey Baked Ham Company Debuts New USDA Choice Prime Rib and Gourmet Sides for the Holidays

For decades, The Honey Baked Ham Company has been synonymous with its signature spiral-sliced glazed hams, but this holiday season, they are introducing a major new contender to the center of the dinner table. Resident culinary expert Chef Tim Ziga joined NBC Palm Springs to announce the launch of their new USDA Choice Prime Rib.

According to Chef Ziga, the decision to expand the menu came after listening to customer feedback and market research, which revealed that beef is the third most popular main dish served during the holidays. The company spent two years perfecting the recipe to ensure it met their high standards. The result is a perfectly marbled, expertly seasoned roast that comes pre-cooked to rare and vacuum-sealed to lock in the juices. The "heat-and-serve" model is designed to make the host look like a hero; customers simply bake it in the oven to their desired temperature.

Beyond the main course, Ziga emphasized that Honey Baked is a "one-stop shop" for the entire meal, offering a wide array of prepared sides, sauces, and desserts. Highlights from this year's side dish lineup include:

  • Double Cheddar Mac & Cheese

  • Cheesy Potatoes Au Gratin

  • Elevated Green Bean Casserole (topped with baby bella mushrooms and fried onions)

  • Sweet Potato Soufflé (whipped sweet potatoes with brown sugar and toasted pecans)

Order Information: To view the full menu or place an order for the holidays, visit HoneyBaked.com.
