Southern Sugar Cured Country Ham Slices – North Carolina Foothills Ham, Traditional Dry Cured (Center & Ends)

Foothills Sugar-Cured Country Ham delivers the authentic flavor of traditional Southern ham, crafted in the foothills of North Carolina using time-honored curing methods. Each ham is hand-rubbed with salt, pepper, cane sugar, and brown sugar. Then it goes into a “winter room” with cold temperatures. After that it moves to a “spring room” with milder temperatures. Finally it goes to a heated “summer/dry room” (~90°F) to finish drying and developing flavor. The idea is they simulate the natural seasons that farmers historically used when curing ham in barns before refrigeration This slow curing method develops the bold, savory flavor and distinctive texture that has made country ham a staple in Southern kitchens for generations. Foothills traces its roots back to a small family meat market founded in 1976, where the tradition of curing country hams began and continues today.
