Ham gets watery when frozen due to the formation of ice crystals within the meat. As water in the ham freezes, it expands and can rupture the cell walls, leading to the loss of moisture when the ham is thawed. This results in the released water pooling around the ham, giving it a watery appearance. Proper wrapping and storage can help minimize this effect.
