looks awesome. i need to go kill some pigs now

Kill some with some fat on them Doc. I hoping these aren't dry. That is all of the fat that was on these, I didn't trim anything. It was a very healthy pig but probably the leanest one I've ever seen.

Pot of beans, mac n cheese, and bacon wrapped baked green beans.....looks amazing Sir!


This is bacon wrapped asparagus....works well with green beans too.....

Why didn’t you put a bacon hat on the hams?

I thought about it Cast but just decided to let it ride. They turned out good, not dry at all.
Jes you and I were on the same wavelength. Just got back from the store with navy beans and my wife is going to make scalloped potatoes.

That ham looks incredible! Well done Sir....well done......

Thanks Jess and thanks for following along.
You should try it sir.

Thanks for posting this up....on my list now is sauerkraut, bacon, and now ham.....love this forum....

Looks awesome! If you are an Amazon user search 6" hotel pan. It measures 20-3/4-inch length by 12-3/4-inch width by 6-inch height. I have used it to brine whole venison quarters. Pretty handy buy for under $30 in my opinion.

As for SIL, ask her to look into how many times a combine has rolled over an innocent animal so she could have her cruelty free food.

Those look really good. Going to see if I can round a few hams up.

Looks incredible
