Petite Country Ham 3-4 Pounds

It is very salty needs to be boiled before eating

Quality product. Would purchase again. It was a star on our holiday table. Country ham was delicious, not overly priced

The ham was the protein centerpiece of a small Thanksgiving dinner. I removed the ham from the cryovac and all looked normal. This ham is labeled as cooked and ready to eat but I wanted to heat it up for service. I carefully wrapped it in foil and heated it at 325 degrees for approximately 50 minutes. Using a IRT, I "temped" it and it was right at 135 degrees. Placed it on the cutting board and let it rest for about 5 -10 minutes. Placed it flat end down and prepared to slice it for service. As per directions, I was attempting to slice very thin. As the heated ham started to cool it also started to unravel? It did not appear to be a whole part of shank meat. It completely separated and left a small piece of ham in the center while the remainder unwrapped into a flat piece of meat. I apologize for not taking a picture but I was still believing all was well. Slicing across the grain as best I could and it was still a fatty mess. I managed to get a few pieces ready for service and I decided to taste test a smaller piece off the cutting board. Terrible taste and too salty to be palatable. I served it. I should have pitched it. In the trash. I "chunked up" the remainder (which was about 75% of the ham) and decided to use it for ham soup. (Yeah, a darn expensive soup at over sixty bucks for the ham!) I'm only now reviewing this because the ham also ruined ham and Navy bean soup. I had never experienced a failure to make ham soup out of leftovers prior to this! There was zero amount of water I could've added to my soup to save it. A total holiday disappointment for sure.

Very good ham.

Great value and perfectly cooked. Have ordered twice already and will be reordering. So much easier and less expensive than cooking a whole ham, and just the right size for family gatherings.

I was worried paying that much money for Ham. But it was absolutely worth every penny and I will buy it again. I thought it was perfectly cured, not to salty, almost no water. Was fantastic. And my team at work all Loved the Country Ham!

My husband wanted a salt cured ham so I purchased this for him. It was a little mushy but he ate it. Probably we will not purchase another one. Sorry

Don't let any negative reviews steer you astray. This is the classic Virginia cured ham as described. If you have never had it before, think of it like like "southern style" prosciutto. A delicacy. Too salty for a main course, but fantastic in biscuits, sandwiches, as a side - and use it to flavor in all manner of soups and stews. The salty flavor is part of the appeal. Yes it is more expensive than a conventional ham, but a little goes a long way and it is a unique culinary tradition.
