Sounds good!  Do you fry your ham like we do here in the mountains?

We take thick slices of sugar or salt cured ham, then heat up a frying pan and toss it in.  The ham is cut to a thickness  that you can get a good sear on both sides and it be cooked through at the same time.  It's not as salty as bacon, but much more substantial as a side or even a meal.  It's usually served as a breakfast side, stuffed in a biscuit or in a steak sized portion for lunch or supper.  We just call it 'Country Ham."

This is what it looks like ready to go in the pan:

Probably about 5-8mm or so. 

An alternative version of it is to take a precooked (we call them spiral sliced) ham and toss them in the frying pan just long enough to get good and hot.

Yea, taking a look at a few recipes and pictures of gammon, it looks to be quite similar.

Hope you find something good soon Ung! 

The salt curing of the ham comes from the the pioneer days before refrigeration and freezing foods was available salt curing was the only way to keep meat for the winter.  So, for us here in the mountains, this is a heritage type preparation and meal.  Even now, salt cured ham that you get at the grocery store has no need to be refrigerated at all.

..in those days they would had what what was known here as "meat safes"... a cupboard with perforated tin panels to allow cool air flow...

Breakfast is my next meal.  For sure I'm eating bacon  ;D

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.
