They are boiled hams, made in a ham press.
Some are made from pieces, usually little
cheap molded hams sold in discount stores.
Most are the deboned pork leg, stuffed
into the mold.

They don't have to be injected, because
they spend considerable time simmering
in a broth. Anything you want to put in
them is put into the broth.
