The Evolution of a Ham

(We actually waited the "proper" amount of time before indulging.)


After being smoked, Mickey stored the ham in ash to help preserve it, so the ash needed to be scrubbed off.


It won't fit in the pot!


 We never understood the concept of boiling hams, until Mickey made traditional-style hams -- dry and salty.  He boiled the ham for some time with various herbs. 


Then transferred the meat to a roaster, with a glaze, to finish in the oven.


A delicious success!
