Our family’s favorite way to cook Clifty Farm Country Ham slices.

Frying Pan Method
For obtaining milder flavor, cook ham slowly in frying pan with equal parts carbonated cola* and water. Use enough liquid to cover the bottom of the pan; however, too much will cause it to burn.

Oven Method
Place single slice of Clifty Farm Country Ham slices in oven safe pan. Add equal parts carbonated cola* and water to cover the bottom of the pan. Cover with aluminum foil to retain juiciness. Bake at 250 degrees for 1 hour. Multiple slices may require longer cooking time.

*Apple juice can be substituted for cola.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”recipes-column-1″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”recipes-column-2″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”recipes-column-3″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]

Do not trim any excess fat from the slices until after frying. If ham seems too salty, soak slices in lukewarm water 30 minutes before frying. Place slices in skillet turning lean part of ham away from the hottest part of the skillet. Add just a little water. Fry slowly for 4 to 8 minutes. Turn slices frequently.

Baking a Country Ham

Remove hock; scrub ham thoroughly with stiff brush and warm water, if molded. Place ham, skin side up, in deep covered pan. Add water to within two inches of top of pan and add about a cup of sorghum, honey or brown sugar. Cook slowly (about 325 degrees) and bring to a slow boil. Cook approximately 20 minutes per pound of ham. The ham will be done when it reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F. Remove skin and allow to cool in liquid in which it was cooked. After ham is cool, remove from liquid and cover with paste made of brown sugar moistened with vinegar. Stick with cloves. Place under broiler or in hot oven until sugar is melted. Serve hot or cold.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”recipes-column-1″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”recipes-column-2″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”recipes-column-3″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]
