You really got my stomach gr...mmm-MMMM, good stuff! You really got my stomach growling with this one. <BR/><BR/>There's nothing like some good country ham. I like it for breakfast on biscuits, but you can't beat it with mashed potatoes smothered in red eye gravy and some green beans on the side. It's a heart attack on a plate, but wow what a way to go!<BR/><BR/>My mamaw loves country ham, too, and always gets her's from Benton's, a little, family-run, out of the way place on Highway 411 in Madisonville, TN, just south of Knoxville. I remember going by there several times as a kid as we visited her sister in TN. If you are in the area, pay them a visit and buy some ham. You can smell the salt and smoke before you even step in their door. They'll slice and package the ham for you right there. And while you wait, see if they'll let you peek in their curing room!<BR/><BR/>And for those who are geographically challenged like me, they're on the web, too: <A HREF="https://bentonshams.com/order/index.php" REL="nofollow">https://bentonshams.com/order/index.php</A>. Hallelujah!<BR/><BR/>One note, they are currently so busy from recent publicity that they're not taking online orders, but should be back up after the new year.Jeremy Petershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14105906795034172230noreply@blogger.com
