Make some red eye gravy for breakfast. Goes well with grits and eggs

>>15484431
I had that for dinner earlier, just on a piece of toast. Gonna make grits on Saturday, and pancakes on Sunday, and my gf's gonna make biscuits next Sunday.

>I threw it in the freezer to have on Easter.
Confused. Don't the label on all of those say to refrigerate AFTER opening? The very nature of a "Country Ham" should allow for it to sit out with no real degradation. Hell, I have some plastic pack prosciutto in similar condition just sitting out staring back at me telling me to eat it. But I yield.

>>15484685
It's already sliced.

>>15484730
Yes, but assuming it is vacuum packed, it should still be fine.

>>15484798
It's not a perfect vacuum seal, and most manufacturers - including the people I bought it from - recommend freezing large hams for baking when you're not gonna eat it within a month or so. If this were an intact ham I'd definitely just leave it out.

>>15484816
Alrighty!

>>15484888
anyway should I make beans or greens?

>>15484893
How about green beans?

But really maybe some split peas

>>15484912
I just made ham and lentils last week, which are basically split peas. I like the green bean idea. Maybe with some chicken and noodles.

>>15484924

>>15484946

Long live OP:s ham thread!

long term storage

>>15487074
so it doesn't spoil because it's giant hunk of meat. city ham is for morons.

>>15487077
And why would you not want it spoil? What happens then?

>>15487103
When it spoils, you can't eat it anymore. Wet ham is for people who like to eat spoiled meat.

>>15487118
Precisely, you can't eat it. Ladies and gentlemen, let the record show on this day that it has been proven beyond reasonable doubt that ham is indeed, for eating.

>>15487153
Yes, and you can't eat spoiled meat, and wet ham spoils very quickly. Wet ham defeats the purpose of ham because you can't eat it.

>>15487159
>Wet ham defeats the purpose of ham because you can't eat it.
You literally can eat wet ham.

>>15487168
For like a week, then it's spoiled. Enjoy your food waste.

>>15487172
So you concede, the purpose of ham is to eat.

>>15487175
The only point I care to make is that wet cured ham defeats the purpose of ham, whatever that purpose may be.

>>15487181
It does not defeat the purpose of ham, because the purpose of ham is to eat. If you can eat it, the purpose is not defeated.

>>15487188
You can't eat spoiled food without getting sick.

>>15487202
It sounds to me like the point your trying to make but are too retarded to is wet cured ham defeats the purpose of CURING it, not the purpose of the ham itself.

>>15487227
Ham is a cured meat product.

>>15487247
Very good anon. Ham is a cured meat product and its purpose it to be eaten. Curing is a process of which the purpose is to make meat last long.

>>15487268
I'm glad you finally admit you agree with me. That'll be all.

>>15482934
Country ham is so fucking shitty
Just tastes like salt
The only thing it's good for is throwing in fucking green beans, inedible on its own

>>15487272
I don't agree with you. Your original point was that wet cured ham defeats the purpose of ham. You were incorrect, the purpose of ham it to eat. What you meant was wet cured ham defeats the purpose of curing it, which isn't entirely true because its cured like that to make it taste that way, not necessarily to make it last long, therefore not defeating its purpose of tasting like ham.

>>15487302
transitive property. you agree with me; you just used more steps to say what I was saying

>>15487272
you lost this one m8

>>15487319
Lost what? There was no argument. It was just two people agreeing with each other.

>>15487312
No, I agree with the point that you were too retarded to articulate properly by saying shit like "you can't eat wet cured ham".

>>15487340
I said that'll be all. We're in agreement, and this is the last (You) you'll be getting from me.

>>15487344
>act like a retard
>bro you can't eat wet cured ham
>bro we're both right, trust me
I hope for your sake you were only pretending to be retarded all along

>>15487363

>>15487588
I wasn't trying to pretend those both weren't me, I though of a better post right after I posted the first one. Coincidentally, the point of both is that you're retarded.

>>15487597
>confused old man continues to ramble, still thinks he's in a non-existent argument

>>15487607
>retarded anon doesn't realize he's retarded and keeps posting out of anger after saying he wouldn't post anymore
Please do stop posting

>>15487623
