I don't know about you but I think this little beauty came quite close to perfection.

MMMMMM. What a prize. I first tasted Benton pork products at David Chang's Momofuku. The flavor and texture nearly knocked me off my stool.

Phwoar!! That's one fine looking bit of pig you've got there... :)

Hmm....smoked pig....

Hamtastic! But I'm assuming you won't be eating the whole thing in one sitting. Looking forward to ham sightings in future posts!

Pim, You now have the power to stop the New York hype. LOL
There is no doubt in my mind! If you hand that baby over to the man himself. David Chang and Benton's product's will never again be mentioned in the same sentence.

Yeah, isn't it amazing looking?
My friend Fred, a born and bred old school Southern gentleman, send a tsk, tsk, all the way down from down there....you should have asked me he said....I know far better country ham producers than Benton's....some small local smoke houses without a license and let alone an interweb site....
Heh. I guess we couldn't please everyone. I thought it was mighty good. We had a good part of it for a big Easter dinner. I'll post more about it later.

Any fans of the film "To Kill a Mocking Bird" out there looking at this photo with great fondness? I wish kids these days would think of dressing up like a ham on Halloween!
