$87 dollars for a HAM ????

In the past I have been a few times in Australia where I bought a half a ham leg of 5 kilo for 40 Australian dollar total. I now had a look at their prices and it is still 6,5 $ per kilo. So that ham of almost 4 kilo you bought would have costs in Australia at most 25 $..........

I don’t eat ham or pork products, so I had no idea how much these damn things go for.

As I stated previously, I don’t care that she spent $87. It’s the fact it’s $87 for HAM!

It’s a PIG.



.

I spent over $200 for 1 pund of some fancy ham from Spain.....well worth it for a trying something new....

I hear ya. I'm not sure all the work/time that goes into making a honey baked ham but I've made prosciutto a few times and I'd rather pay the $22 a pound like someone linked to above. That shit takes about 5lbs of salt, cover the loin in it, throw it in the garage for a month or 2, then cheeseclothe it and hang it for a year.

Thats an 11lb ham you tard.

Most hams are not that big

whats even worse is that it isnt even organic.....

EPIC FUCKING FAIL

the ingriednets in that gmo ham will kill you

I’ll gladly pay $200 for “whatever” as long as I feel I’m getting VALUE for my money.

I don’t eat pork, so I don’t assign any value to it at all.

Paying $200 for a pound of PIG is like paying $200 for a pound of catfish.
It’s a filthy, bottom-dwelling creature that eats dead, decaying shit.
.

In Australia you can get ham legs up to 20 lb......... that's a whole leg........

Dummy... JFYI, if you go several weeks or a month early to The Honey Baked Ham Store, they sell 2nds... These are discounted first-quality hams that were not spiral-sliced to uniform thickness. If it's the money bothering you...

Don't like ham? We had one of these while my wife was birthing our firstborn at our home. The Midwife and her nurse-assistant were very appreciative of getting some good eats for the 12hrs they were with us. My sister who also helped out, made us a great breakfast of eggs and ham the next morning... Mom often served one of these with her turkey for Thanksgiving. Just excellent.

A half-ham spriral ham like you can get at Costco or any grocer is gonna be dry and meh. Pay twice as much for the Honey-Baked, but everyone loves them.

We used to do a smoked Turkey for Thanksgiving many moons ago, and I suppose some people cook a brisket for their side meal. Never had BBQ on Thanksgiving, but long-smoked pork, ham, poultry or beef can really be cooked to melt-in-your-mouth perfection!

I remember having some Colorado Mule Deer rump roast at my Uncle's one year...

Family is a magical thing. Too many people take their loved-ones for granted. Enjoy the day! America might just be seeing its last Thanksgiving...

$7.89 a pound for honey baked ham, not generic honey baked but made by Honey Baked

OP is either ignorant, a drunk, a lunatic or a troll ... not sure which

It was some artisanal ham that was made from heritage pigs and fed chestnuts.....cure/aged like fine cheese....the flavors was unique with many note and a smooth finish.....truly remarkable....

Ham is peasant food

LOL!!

Now that you mention it, I just looked at the label again and realized it’s less than $8 a pound. Yeah, it’s an 11 pound ham.

I didn’t even look at that. I simply saw $87 for a half a ham.

Oh, fuck me.

I AM a tard....

You guys are right.

I’m being an ungrateful ass.

I’m supposed to be THANKFUL on Thanksgiving.

.

Yes, I just now realized that.

I feel stupid now.

I hereby repent in dust and ashes.

Mea Culpa, GLP.

.

Where you at OP? Regular hams are still dirt cheap here.

Got a 28 dollar Turkey for free after buying 100 dollars of groceries.


87 for a ham?


That's way too much.

it's all good dude. now apologize to your wife

No need to.

I haven’t addressed it yet.

My apologies are to GLP for my ignorance.

My gratitude is to GLP for showing me my ignorance.

Blessings to you, friend.

you can't.

once she's on, you have to get her permission to remove her.

Probably can find out how a ham is made in one of the Foxfire books. Quite an involved process requiring a smokehouse, much salt and brine solution, then lots of hanging in the smokehouse as the pork cures.

Probably described in length in one of the Foxfire books. Seems like some hams are even boiled before being prepared for curing. Lotta work, so they cost real money.

The only poor quality hams I've ever had are the grocery store spiral hams and some of the pork butt and shoulder hams that are too tough; some are very good, some too tough...

A hambone makes lots of nice soups! Potato soup, split pea soup. The last chunks of meat and fat off a ham go right in there too! Good eats for sure!

he only paid $5.75/lb for his wife.

.

I would never divorce her. She’s a rare jewel.

(But I’m personal friends with my bank manager!)

Back to work.

Thanks to all who bent my nose and set me straight!

Happy Thanksgiving, GLP.

Ham's are $15 to $18

Your Wife bough a Pre-cooked HONEY-BAKED Spiral Cut Ham. So that is why it was so expensive.

That means they added about 10 cents worth of honey to the baking process. That jacks up the price of your ham about $10.

You mean a whole $1000 ?
