So me and wife bought a whole hog. We asked for as little ground pork as possible, whole cuts such as collar steaks which is by the way amazing.
Any way I have a wonderful ham piece with nice thick fat cap and everything and its a big boy. How do I go about cooking it? |

If you don't cure it first using regular salt and pink curing salt (NOT Himalayan pink salt), it's just pork roast. You need the nitrites for that "hammy" taste and color.
You can also use Morton's TenderQuick. |

Brine Box? Or would you end up with something more like country ham?

Curing Ham consists of a long brine, wet or dry in salt or sugar, or both.
The Ham is then usually smoked and then left to hang, sometimes for a considerable length of time. In general, such a Ham must then be soaked to remove excess salt prior to serving. |
