• Ham Report, Leo

    How was your Easter feast?

    This Hatfield ham from Pennsylvania was very good, but it's not quite as
    tasty as the Field Kentucky Legend boneless hams I normally buy. Easy to
    cook and just as easy to carve as the Field hams, but the flavor is not as
    deep and 'hammy' as I would like. It will not go to waste that's for sure.

    And I did opt for green beans as side dish to my potato salad.

    The salad with grilled chicken on it was delicious.

    Lunch was mettwurst, sauerkraut, and vinaigrette potato salad.
    Left over from lunch out on Friday.

    It was and was much appreciated. I wish Field hams would adopt this packing method.

    It was fine, and I have a week's worth of ham to get sick of or freeze.

    <https://postimg.cc/hh824J4Z>

    That's my wife's dish. Mine had Log Cabin syrup on the ham. I thought
    the pineapple slices were a nice touch. I never did that before.
    The ham-bone was weird, but there's plenty of ham on it for the beans,
    in a month or two.
    For the Fourth of July, It'll be hot dogs and potato chips. I can handle
    that!

    I like the idea of a reasonable, boneless ham. Perhaps, it's my age.

    And I did opt for green beans as side dish to my potato salad.

    We eat a lot of green beans, mostly canned and convenient.

    Her plate looks good.

    I was going to suggest in a few days or a week or so green beans with
    chopped ham cooked in the pot with some quartered red or gold potatoes
    are dee-lish. For that dish I do like to use frozen green beans.

    It was green beans here again tonight and will be tomorrow night as well.
    Green beans are pretty much my favorite green vegetable. Limas, broccoli,
    and turnip greens are just behind green beans as a fave veggie.

    I never knew green beans were so important to Americans. I think only
    corn out competes them for all y'all.

    Green beans, a slice of dead cow, potatoes with ranch and a side of
    corn. And then watch the Super Bowl between the Boston Beefheads and
    the Pittsburgh Patriots. Is that the ideal American evening?

    I like corn on occasion, but it's not a vegetable I cook or eat with regularity. For some folks, it's probably on their table 4 or 5 times
    a week.

    It could be green beans, a slice of dead cow, or pig, or chicken, or
    even fish. It's a vegetable for me that goes with any meat. But I'm
    going to have to decline locking my eyes on football no matter what
    'bowl' it is. That's why there is cable, satellite, and streaming
    TV. Same holds true for offerings like the Oscars and such.

    I have no interest in watching football. There are plenty of other options.

    I seldom cook corn. We have it on hand to throw into Shepherds Pie and
    rarely cook it on its own. In corn season I occasionally buy a cob and
    grill it. Frankly, I am sick of corn. My mother used to cook two or
    three vegetables for supper and corn was almost always one of them. At
    least with it being one of three vegetables served I didn't have to have
    much of it in any one meal.

    When I cook vegetable beef soup, I use either a bag or two of frozen

    soup mix has cut up okra in it whereas the stew mix doesn't but one has
    a bit of red and green bell peppers. Without a doubt, both have corn

    What you won't find her doing (ever) is using food to attack other
    nations like say the Brits, Oztards, Kiwis, and Canuckleheads regularly

    Note the commonalities - all failed corners of the recently Islamicized

    Just slop in whatever the commercial mix is. Yet you deny your laziness. "Frozen 'vegetable soup mix' or 'stew mix vegetables.'" That's Cathy
    Mitchell shit. Condensed, "cream of soups"? Dump 'em on in. Whatever you
    got, chicken, egg, tuna, whatever, just slop some jarred mayo with it
    and you have whatever "salad."

    Chef, I bet you're missing having kuth come over and make your fresh mayonnaise every day. Poor old betsy, and even Winter can't do it for
    you, since they can't squirt-squirt-squirt.

    Dunce, I never once mentioned any 'cream of soup' mix. These bags are
    frozen, cut up vegetables and nothing else. When making soup with these veggies a person can add whatever seasonings and broths they like. I
    don't add any 'cream of whatever' when I make homemade vegetable beef
    soup.

    And you've got the nerve to call Jill senile. Who's the one shuffling
    in here and mumbling some stupid off the wall shit about 'cream of
    soup'??

    I'm embarrassed for you for your ignorance.

    Poor chef!

    Clearly Jill isn't senile. She is simply a bitter, nasty old hateful
    bitch. She will NEVER change.

    Chef is all about sex, but stuck with plain jane betsy, and an imaginary friend named Winter.

    Chef will NEVER change.

    How was your Easter feast?

    This Hatfield ham from Pennsylvania was very good, but it's not quite as >tasty as the Field Kentucky Legend boneless hams I normally buy.

    And don't forget, the packaging was easy to open!


    It was and was much appreciated. I wish Field hams would adopt this packing method.

    ~

    The ham I got had a nylon mesh wrap for easy carrying. Under the mesh was some gold mylar wrap. Inside the mylar was a vacuum polyester bag that was leakproof.
    It was not easy to open - unless you had a sharp knife. I did so it was smooth sailing.

    I can't say where the ham came from - maybe it was from China. It has an intense
    smoky flavor to it. It smells like my high school friend's 63 Ford Falcon after his back seat caught on fire and burned. It was like driving around in a smoke house for the rest of its days. That car probably had a fiber stuffed seat that
    would be awesome for smoke meats.
