This is a whole, uncooked, bone-in country ham. It is aged 9 to 16 months and sold untrimmed, in its natural form. It is cured by hand in the same style as the first hams the Turner family cured in the early 1900s.
The ham needs deboning, trimming and cooking before serving, so it takes some skill and patience. It can also be hung to continue aging.
