Easter is Sunday, April 12 and now more than ever we need this time with our families. Perhaps you’ll spend yours on a Zoom call, in separate locations but connected via video. Or maybe you’ll celebrate yours in a smaller group? No matter how you’re celebrating, Sam’s has what you need to make sure your Easter is delicious.

CENTER PLATE
As always, we have our Alderfer Spiral Cut Hams ($3.99lb). These are ready to eat or you can add glaze and heat. Alderfer has been around for almost 100 years. Their hams are naturally wood smoked and they do not have any artificial or liquid smoke flavoring. And they’re delicious!
If you’re looking for an alternative to ham, we also have a beautiful leg of lamb. We offer these with both bone-in ($7.99/lb) and boneless ($8.99/lb). (Note: these are uncooked so you will need to plan to cook them.)
