Mrs Cindy 😉 I would never expect her to say, yada yada yada... I'm sure she was proud to this traditional family methods of cooking a ham. And she is right, ham should taste like him, not like candy or anything else 😉

WONDERFUL!!!

[@LifeBoatSinking]

Looks like an Easter meal to me. Yum.

[@cogalh.1131]

My Mom used to make ham the same way but replacing the water in the pan with Coke or Cherry Coke. It just steams into the ham and doesn't change the flavor. Victorinox makes a really nice paring knife and I love their serrated knife for tomatoes. I give a Victorinox chefs knife to the grandchildren when they are old enough, reasonable priced. has a nice handle for new cooks and stays sharp a long time.

[@dorenenagy564]

Thank you for showing us another feast you and the girls prepared. Also thanks to Mrs.Cindy for showing us her way of baking the delicious ham. I'd like to have a plate of that about now! We fix a New England boiled dinner at our home. It's a picnic ham with carrots, cabbage and potatoes all cooked together in the same pot. That was always my Dad's specialty and I have kept it going for my family.

[@lissarice1876]

One of my favorite holiday meals. I grew up with clove studded ham. My Mom cut the skin & fat in diagonal diamonds, studded each intersection with a whole clove, wrapped in foil & cooked on low for a couple of hrs. Then unwrapped, cut off fat & skin diamonds then toothpicked pineapple slices with maraschino cherries in the middle of each. Baked at 350° for another hour. It was beautiful! We have roasted sweet potatoes or potato salad, green beans & pineapple souffle for sides. And yes, we use the ham bone for flavoring beans, bean or split pea soup or greens.

[@matthewmaclellan]

I didn't get to learn much cooking from my mother before she passed away, so I've mostly been figuring it out myself over the years. I had been looking up different ham recipes but didn't know who to trust - the way Miss Cindy and you do it is a way I know I can trust so I'll have to give it a try. Thank you!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

I sure hope you enjoy it! Thank you Matthew 😀

[@janicenichols7271]

Oh my!!! The ham looked so yummy and is making me very hungry!!! I love smoked ham and especially love the bone for soup beans...we just cooked some and enjoy with boiled potatoes for the ultimate comfort food...warms the tum-tum in the cold winter months!!! Love seeing Miss Cindy join in the family videos!!! She is beautiful!!!God Bless you all🙏

[@elizabethhamilton8388]

I love ham cooked plain that that. So good that it don’t need any seasoning. Yummy! Thanks Ms Cindy and Tipper.

[@thisdonthelp8710]

Ham bone beans are delicious ! Sometimes I boil the ham down and divide the broth to put in beans .

[@comiketiger]

All ham brands I've used this past few years have quite a bit of water. I will put it over a charcoal smoker and seal the pan well with heavy duty foil. I will add a little water or broth to get it started but have it almost full of water that has been rendered. This really intensifies the ham taste. The ham is close to falling apart. It's great this way too but I like to pull the foil and throw a wood chunk on the coals and get some smoke on. Not a true smoking but added flavor! Going to do this today! 😍😍😍 God bless all here

[@jamesnbrenda8960]

I have been a butcher for 35 years and we do it all. We do exotics, Buffalo, elk, deer, hogs and beef. We smoke 56 hams at a time alone with the bacon. There's nothing like a truly fresh, smoked, bone in ham. I love these videos, feels like watching my family in KY cook.

[@lissarice1876]

Is there a way to tell if a smoked ham in the grocery store is fresh?

[@jamesbarrow9638]

Hi there...have enjoyed your videos since I found y'all a few years back. Since my family came from up your way....back in the early 1800s and they brought our way of cooking from the Carolina's here (North West Florida) that has a lot in common with your recipes. Even the cooking of the ham. My Mom (lost her almost 4 years ago now) use to save the ham drippings to make ham rice with and my kids and grandkids really love it. Simple to make....taste the drippings first to test for saltiness, add water to the amount of yellow rice the bag calls for and cook by the directions on the bag. You'll be surprised how great it taste!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Sounds good! So glad you enjoy our videos 😀

[@KathysTube]

It looks too easy... and delicious, especially with potato salad! Thanks for sharing 🤗❤️

[@mishalea]

[@95KIPPIE]

My mama always baked her hams with Gingerale. It is so delicious and I have been cooking mine the same way for over 40 years. And that is instead of adding water, add about 2 to 3 cans of Gingerale, yummy!

I’m from Alabama, Irish heritage, and this is the exact same way my mom baked a ham, except she baked it much longer, about 5 hours, so that the meat just falls apart, much like pulled pork. So tender and delicious! My mom never sliced a ham. They were always flakey. I do it my mom’s way and everyone loves it!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

They are so good 😀

[@MrRainking98]

We always cook a ham every Christmas eve, sometimes we add a little butter and brown sugar at the end, or sometimes we bake it without glaze. We always use the hambone for blackeye peas hopping john and collard greens the next weekend (new years day). And cornbread. Do y'all ever fix new year's dishes like that? I enjoy all your videos and recipes.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

We do 😀 so good!

[@lizschwartz7447]

We take all the juices left and make ham gravy with it. My husband looks forward to it every year. It’s such a fabulous gravy. If it’s to salty just add more water to your pan.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Black bean soup made with a big ham bone is a gift from God. Eat on that! :)

[@patriciaandrews6803]

I cook ours the same except I add a can of pineapple rings and use half pineapple juice and half water. Then I toothpick the pineapple to the sides and cook. I love the sweetness of the pineapple and the saltiness or the ham. That plate Matt fixed looked amazing. Made my stomach growl. Thanks again for another great video.

I’m from a state that produces a lot of pork (Iowa). Our pork producers work very hard to bring quality meat to market. That ham looks so good, and it was fun to see Miss Cindy.

[@Jomama02]

Don't forget beans and hambone....

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

I grew up in Indiana and my mother loved scalloped potatoes and ham, so she liked to make it with leftover ham. As a child I HATED it and now I'd give anything to have it again, made by mother. I'm 67, my mother is gone and I haven't had it in probably 50 years! You just reminded me of that and how spoiled I must have been! Though not TOO spoiled. Mom had a strict "This is what I made for dinner - take it or leave it" policy! LOL

Miss Cindy is a pretty lady indeed We enjoyed this and it’s very much like how we do it at our home We were saying that we should put one in right before Church and it would be ready for the family to come over afterwards when we get home in two hours It would work especially well with potato salad and coleslaw rolls and butter where we didn’t need other hot sides Of course we could have beans in the crockpot Tipper you offer up some great ideas We did this with a spiral like you mentioned at Christmas and used the leftovers for breakfast meats most of the week It was delicious Thanks God Bless

[@lindapetersen1800]

Tipper when I buy a whole ham like that I have it cut in half for bone wise !!! My Mom taught me to use it in boiled dinner after wards !!! It has taters rhutbages in it carrots and cabbage on top of it all !!! I use the bone a 2nd time for split pea soup then !!! I really get the money's worth out of that one bone !!!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thanks for the tip 😀

[@Shazzadut1]

Why not buy Miss Cindy a bigger roaster with a lid next Christmas. There’s a gift she’d appreciate. It looks so tasty. Any you’re right, the bone makes the best soup. I make Pea and Ham soup in winter. As you say freeze the bone. You can also preeze any left over meat. Miss Cindy is a good looking older lady. I bet she was sought after as a young woman!

Ham and potato salad my Uncle Joe would approve. His wife Aunt May made the ham and Uncle Joe made the potato salad 5 pounds of potatoes at a time, and it was delicious. I don't know how often Aunt May cooked a ham, but I never went fishing with Uncle Joe that he didn't have a couple ham sandwiches for his lunch, on white bread with yellow mustard. Miss Cindy is just lovely.
