SRF Kurobuta Ham - Thx Shane!

Made the Snake River Farms Kurobuta Ham for dinner tonight. By far the best ham we've ever eaten. Rich, perfectly marbled and the fat cap is like meat butter. I followed @Ozzie_Isaac 's advice and sous vide'ed it for about 5 hours at 140 deg f. The glaze was a reduction of brown sugar and espresso dark balsamic. Definitely richer and more flavorful than any ham we have ever had. Hamn good. 
Thank you so much @SRFShane for the opportunity to review the ham. This definitely won't be my last.

I had one over the holidays. Good stuff.
I I try to avoid sweat in my cooks, but to each his own. I guess that's common Illinois. -
Looks like a winner to me brother.

How long did you have it on the egg after SV, and what temp?#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -
Thx guys! @caliking, LOL, I gave it about 35 minutes at 450ish on the egg. First 15 with no glaze, then glaze every 5 minutes during the last 20 min.

Thx! It really was! I got the idea from @Ozzie_Isaac . Too simple and very good. Didn't take away from the richness of the ham either.mgd_egg said:That there is an awesome glaze! Looks delicious -

This looks fantastic. Between your post and the one yesterday from @Ozzie_Isaac I cannot wait to get mine! If mine looks half as good as your two hams then I'll be psyched!.

I've been looking for an excuse to get one of these but haven't been able to justify the cost......yet. But these last two cooks have really pushed me closer to the breaking point - that's for sure.

Awesome cook @Dyal_SC ! These hams are just one of those products that people have to try to understand the difference. Yours looks fantastic!

A few bourbons in but I can still recognize a great cook and presentation. @Dyal_SC is always on his game and the above is no different. I may have to stray from the SRF beef magnet that I am on and venture into pig roast country.
As with @Ozzie_Isaac 's cook, these Kurobota hams look like true feasts. I will definitely give one a go-and I won't let it impact my SRF beef buys. Or so I think
