Kevin Brode, founder of the Ham Bee Ham Co. bought all of us living in Windsor Ontario the finest quality of fully baked spiral sliced honey glazed hams starting back in 1983. When the doors opened the Honey-Bee Ham Co. became the original store of its kind in the country and to this day with many imitators no one has quite measured up to the standards and quality of a Honey-Bee Ham for the ham quality, glaze, slicing and especially that gourmet flavour and taste. For more than two and a half decades the Honey-Bee Ham Co. has become a Windsor family tradition for more then just the Christmas Holidays, but any time you’re in the mood for a great tasting ham. A Honey Bee Ham can be enjoyed not just in Ontario, but can also be shipping coast to coast across Canada. It’s something everyone in our family looks forward to especially during Christmas. The sweet honey glaze is to die for and the ham just melts in your mouth. You can warm it up or eat it cold, but be fast because these honey hams sure don’t last long with everyone sneaking a bit. The same quality that led to Kevin’s success back in 1983 is still used today. From the many suppliers available, only those who meet the precise Honey-Bee Ham standards are chosen so you know these hams are the best he can buy. The hams are carefully cured and fully trimmed to become a Honey-Bee Ham select. Then the real process begins – A hickory smoke process for over 30 hours with temperature control for complete and thorough baking. Once chilled the Honey-Bee Hams are then spiral sliced. This unique method continuously slices the ham uniformly around the bone leaving preparation and serving a pleasure for our customers. Then they add the final touch and part of their signature trademark, their own honey glaze, once again, only using the finest of pure ingredients and pure honey of course. That is the only part of the secret they will let us in on, but its enough to make my mouth water. The rest is in the taste which is part of their identity. From the start people were asking for more so in 1984 Kevin started the eat-in or take-out lunch menu witch continues to grow today. He uses only the freshest and best quality ingredient to prepare his meals just as he does when baking his Honey Bee Hams. On top of the great tasting honey Bee ham sandwiches you can also order turkey, Roast beef, Corn beef and egg salad sandwiches. You can also choose witch type of cheese you like such as Cheddar, Swiss or Edam. There are two locations in Windsor Ontario located on either side of the city and they just opened a new Honey Bee Ham store located in London Ontario on Adelaide Street North.
