For process for production of raw ham a deboned ham is weighed and preferably its pH-value is determined. The hams are individually introduced into shaping containers having watertight walls, wherein they are salted with a salt amount, which is calculated based upon the weight and preferably the pH-value. The shaping containers are stacked, so that the ham is shaped under pressure in these shaping containers, wherein they are held in the brine filled shaping containers with exclusion of air.
