"My Country Ham heritage began in Roanoke, Virginia. My Father and his family, when he was just a child, lived very much off the land... Their family tradition of ham and eggs on Christmas morning has carried over to my family tradition—or, better said, we have carried over that tradition.
Every Christmas Eve, our home is filled with the distinct aroma of a Country Ham slowly baking in the oven... it smells like Christmas! The ham and eggs are chopped up, cured ham, sauteed in butter, and then cracked eggs into the pan over the pieces of ham... I prefer my eggs a bit "wet," as did my father, back in the day.
We serve the Ham & Eggs with toast, OJ, and Coffee to wash it all down... Salute!
Thank You for helping me continue a lifelong, and generations long tradition... the time is coming to pass the torch and keep the string of this tradition alive." R.M.
