How long is a cooked Ham on the bone good for?

I cooked a Ham last Saturday and I am having some people over for the bears game and was wondering if it is still good. It is still on the bone if that matters.

Thoughts?
Thanks

Ham is cured meat. I'd eat it.

Think about it this way, go to your local supermarket and look at the hams (they're all pre-cooked). Look at the "Sell by" date on them. That should give you some affirmation.

Never thought about it that way! Thanks dude. If they all die I owe you some cash because they are all a pain in the ass anyway. :evil:

of course it is....

the reason they cure it in the first place is to keep it edible for essentially years. maybe an exaggeration. but properly kept, it won't go bad. it may lose quality, but if wrapped, it won't dry out. certainly not in two or three days

if it smells good eat it, if it smells bad do what you want with it. Ham will last a long friggen time..
