A honey baked ham will last in the refrigerator for up to 5 days before it starts going bad.

Raw ham will only last for around 3 days in the refrigerator before bacteria grows on the raw ham and it goes bad and should be thrown out.

But since the honey baked ham is cooked then it can last a bit longer and will last for up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

If you're gonna eat or serve the honey baked ham within a few days or the 5 days then it's okay to just leave it in the refrigerator.

But if you're gonna keep the honey baked ham longer than 5 days then make sure to freeze the honey baked ham instead.

In the freezer the honey baked ham will last for up to a year or more.

However after about 6 months the honey baked ham starts to lose it's freshness and won't be as good tasting and may get freezer burn.

But the honey baked ham will remain safe to eat even after a year.
