SugarDALE ham is fully cooked, and I suspect that if SugarDELL is different, it is too. A fresh ham does not have the typical pink look of a cured ham, and it will not be as firm. It would need to be cooked to an internal temperature of 145-150°, like any fresh pork. What you describe is warming to meat to 120-130°

Or if you are my mother, pork must be cooked until it turns to leather, or reaches the temperature of the surface of the sun. — your choice.
