How To make Georgia Country Ham
10 pounds country ham -- Georgia (10 to 12)
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup bourbon or sherry
1 cup water
Have the hock cut off ham so that it will fit into a roaster. Soak ham overnight in cold water and scrub the ham with a stiff brush. Change water a couple times to get rid of the excess salt. Mix sugar, bourbon and water; press into the fat of ham. Cover tightly with foil in roaster and bake at 200 degrees for 8 hours.

Country Ham Biscuits and Scallion-Pimento Cheese
RECIPE COURTESY OF TRISHA YEARWOOD
Level: Easy
Total: 40 min
Active: 30 min
Yield: 16 biscuits
Ingredients
Scallion-Pimento Cheese:
Two 7-ounce bricks sharp white Cheddar, finely grated
Two 4-ounce jars pimentos, drained and diced
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped scallions
Country Ham Biscuits:
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes and chilled, plus 1 tablespoon for the skillet
3/4 cup buttermilk, well shaken
1/4 cup finely diced country ham
Directions
Special equipment: a 2-inch biscuit cutter
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven to heat.
For the scallion-pimento cheese: Stir together the cheese, pimentos, mayonnaise and scallions in a large bowl. Set aside, or if making ahead, place in the fridge until ready to use.
For the country ham biscuits: Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Using a pastry blender or 2 table knives, cut the cold butter cubes into the flour until it resembles coarse meal. Use a fork to stir in the buttermilk to make a soft dough that comes together and leaves the sides of the bowl (make sure all the flour is worked in). Stir in the ham. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board and knead 3 or 4 times until smooth and manageable.
With your hands or a floured rolling pin, flatten the dough to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Cut the dough out with a 2-inch floured biscuit cutter.
Remove the skillet from the oven and melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in it. Place the biscuits in the skillet. Bake until lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes.
To serve: Split the biscuits and serve with a generous spread of pimento cheese.

Burgers' Smokehouse - How We Make Our Country Ham
Our family has been making country hams since the 1800s but sold our first country hams in 1927. Over the last 90 years, we've continued to use a simple cure mixture and a large amount of patience to make sure every country ham we make has that bold and unique flavor our family and customers love.
