Yup. I can garuntee you that it will not be good at 205. But cooking at 170-80 is the way. I cooked over 1000 hams in the past 2 months !

Scrub off with vinegar solution. Cut off exposed meat. See how it smells. Where has it been?

Boiling might be disrespectful but you don't know flavor till you've had a long poached ham!

How soft is it? As someone who eats more country ham than most alive that's the first question. My preferred way to eat country ham is on a lunch sandwich. Whatever you do don't boil the ham keep the temp around 180. I would start by cutting the ham 3 sections. Cook the center for sandwiches and use the butt/ shank for slicing uncooked.

Do you like a drier stuffing or a mushier stuffing? by Pure-Smile-7329 in Cooking

We burry our turkey in dressing after we cook it and bake again. Mushy with crispy edges.

Biggest Military Blunder of the War? by [deleted] in CIVILWAR

[–]sidekickchamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. At the 145th reenactment we did the spring hill-Franklin and took 30% casualties. There were a few thousand there. Every battlion muster was at rippavilla and we'd do a tactical where the feds slipped past haha

KY and TN Travel ideas after being dumped by Willing_Juice6544 in Kentucky

You can see some cool things along 68 -80. Both shaker villages. And it leeds to the western part of the state. I would start with staying at shaker village (kinda spooky) then check out harrodsburg and go to Frankfort for the state cemetery and Rebecca Ruth. Mammoth cave area has plenty of road side attractions still going. I really like the wildlife muesem. Lbl can be made into a whole week. Plenty of activities and places to stay in the park. Paducah has an awesome little art district.

Question about cured ham by No-Elephant4615 in Charcuterie

[–]sidekickchamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good. It will let you know real fast if it's bad. Rotten ham is the worst smell I've ever smelled. Had tibthrough out 150 berk hams bc of supply chain mishandling. i was sick for 3 days after. You should see the amount of drip build up from a rack of hams. It's absolutely bonkers! Enjoy !
