Cooking Bacon

Please Keep in mind that this page is under construction and links may not work properly

Cook slowly at a low temperature in skillet. Peak flavor is obtained by not cooking country bacon to a point of crispness. A George Foreman type grill works really well. About 5 minutes is

what we like to cook it on that.

 

Smoked Sausage:

This item is also best if cooked slowly using med. to low heat. The cloth bag (we call the cloth bag a poke) slides off much easier if you freeze the entire bag, and remove the cloth bag while still frozen.


Ground Ham Salad

lUse 1 pound Scotts Ground Cooked Ham.

Add 1/3 cup chopped
sweet pickle and 1/3 cup Salad Dressing or Mayonnaise. Mis

together. Store in refrigerator.
Spread on your favorite bread or cracker. Great on Scotts

Beaten Biscuits.
You may also add 1/3 cup each of chopped celery, onion and

boiled egg.

 

Country Ham Fried

 Wash ham. If molded, vinegar may be used. Remove outside skin and face of ham. Slice 1/4 inch thick. Place in skillet. Add water to almost cover slices. Cover skillet and let simmer over medium-low heat for about 30-40 minutes (or until tender.)

 

Red Eye Gravy

After frying ham, have the skillet hot,  Drain 2-3 tablespoons drippings into bowl. Remove remaining drippings from skillet, pour about 1-1/2 cups hot water into skillet. (More or less can be used, depending on the amount of gravy desired).  This will sizzle. When sizzling stops, pour into bowl with drippings.

Country Ham Fried

Country Ham Fried  Wash ham. If molded, vinegar may be used. Remove outside skin and face of ham. Slice 1/4 inch thick. Place in skillet. Add water to almost cover slices. Cover skillet and let simmer over medium-low heat for about 30-40 minutes (or until tender.)

To Prepare Whole

Soak overnight.  Remove face of ham and scrub to remove any mold that may have formed. (The face of the ham is the side opposite the skin side.) Place in pot, add water to cover. Put lid on pot.  Boil on top of stove 20 minutes per lb. of meat.  (For best results insert meat thermometer, heat to 165 degrees F.) You can cook this in the oven, but you must have a lid for the pan you are using, if not be sure to crimp aluminum foil very tightly around rim of pan so no steam escapes. After it has cooked. Remove skin, use your favorite glaze, brown in oven about 10-15 minutes. Let cool in refrigerator at least 12 hours before you attemp to slice.  Slice--keep stored in refrigerator. For best flavor, let warm to room temperature before serving.
