It was so tough we couldn't slice it, we had to pull it off in chunks. The fact that I had marinated it for 24 hours in Mojo getting up in the middle of the night to turn it made the experiment even more hurtful. I don't think you did anything wrong as I even looked up the recipe I used and I followed it to the letter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-44963644953062843022010-04-06T23:07:18.840-04:002010-04-06T23:07:18.840-04:00Kim,

There is a carnitas recipe on FLB that uses a lot of spices and braising to make the meat fall apart. It may be worth a try to salvage what is left of this huge hunk of ham. :0)Fresh Local and Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06975218501433243628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-73270550589479256322010-04-06T19:57:54.080-04:002010-04-06T19:57:54.080-04:00It's good to hear that you still had a wonderf...It's good to hear that you still had a wonderful Easter despite the ham.

Doing well here in Indiana, but I am sooo ready to go home to Ohio tomorrow. <br /><br />I love the description of Easter afternoon in your driveway. It does sound perfect. As for the pork...now you know why it's so hard to find it fresh... because no one likes it that way. lol. Ham begs to be cured or smoked or whatever. Fresh is a really good with almost every food...but not ham. Take it from me...I was the County Pork Queen once upon a time. ;-)<br /><br />Can't wait to hear about that ground pork, though. <br /><br />Happy Belated Easter!Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01040440819331738594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-14813361091710488102010-04-05T21:00:51.960-04:002010-04-05T21:00:51.960-04:00wow sounds like the perfect day your so sweet grea...wow sounds like the perfect day your so sweet great looking hamchow and chatterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04225995063075911644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-42904552582830882282010-04-05T16:58:12.216-04:002010-04-05T16:58:12.216-04:00The chutney sounds fantastic, Kim!

Then again, I'm not a ham expert at all. I just buy the spiral sliced pre-cooked ham and call it a day! As for the chutney-- double bummer that it didn't pair well with your pork. No matter what, how blessed we are to be able to buy food, eat and blog about it. Better luck next time-- am looking forward to seeing what you make next!Foodiewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071730074240565916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6163770583663178916.post-31878482119476787432010-04-05T13:38:16.660-04:002010-04-05T13:38:16.660-04:00That's a shame.

I did that once with an Ina Garten recipe and she actually got back to me.
