Try a fresh ham and you will be converted. The difference between
fresh and cured ham is like night and day. I enjoy both but for
dining I much prefer fresh ham. I consider cured ham more a snack
food than an entree, but mainly a flavoring ingredient.
Bought a Butt half cured ham yesterday at a good price, 88/lb.
Not sure when I will cook it but it, says use by June 1, 2017 so I've
got time:

Last night's dinner was roast beef (too well done for most of you but
we like it this way, one huge (1 pound) baked potato we shared, and
another round of Oriental orange green beans, very tasty:
