I've loved country hams since the first time I tasted one. While I love to cook, I've never cooked a country ham though. It seems like a lot of work to prep. A friend of Margo's mentioned that he had a source of some amazing country hams. With their reputation, I have dubbed them "magic hams."
We bought half of an uncooked ham a couple of weeks ago but haven't had time to do anything with it.
Things are calming down a bit so this morning I started soaking it in a cooler. I will change the water every day til Saturday when it comes out and starts a 4-hour cook. Saturday or Sunday, I plan on having a post with pictures and a review. If I like the results, I'll reveal the source of the ham.
