Why do we call it Country Ham? These hams did originate in the country, in barns in fact. First hand rubbed in a cure mixture in the fall, hung in a barn through “the seasons” before being eaten in the summer and throughout the next year. Although we’ve made adjustments through the years, we still brown sugar cure and age them at least 90 days for a robust flavor that can only be replicated through time and patience.
PATIENCE PAYS IN DELICIOUS RESULTS
