RTC Smoke,
I've always just fried it. Country ham is awesome. Some soak it a bit to get rid of some of the salt. I'm a salt freak so I rinse it off and fry away.

RTC Smoke,
I've done a few but the last one was about 6 years ago. Soak it for a couple of days (at least) and change the water 3 times each day (at least). It'll still be salty but it has fantastic flavor and texture. I didn't have an egg when I did my last one but think it would be a great way to do it. Some of my southern friends baste it with coca cola.[p]You're making me want to go out and find one of these things.[p]Paul
