## Description

desertcart.com: Rays Country Ham - 16 lb. - Whole SLICED Bone-in Country Ham – The Real Thing | Authentic Blue Ridge Mountain Dry-Cure | Bold Southern Flavor : Grocery & Gourmet Food

Review: Taste like a slice of Heaven - Ham arrived without the “owners manual” I emailed co and got a response from owner of company within an hour. He had emailed me the missing info and also sent me info on how to make redeye gravy which is a wonderful by-product of frying COUNTRY ham. I have purchased many packs of their sliced ham but this was my first whole sliced ham. The taste takes me back to being a kid and eating home cured hams from our smokehouse. The product is beyond expectations and the fact that the owner of co emailed me personally say’s everything you need to know about Ray’s Country hams.I have read a couple of negative reviews, obviously they have NO clue what a COUNTRY HAM is supposed to taste like. If you don’t know what your ordering Suck it up to your own stupidity and don’t slander a great product. Eat some kale to get the taste out of your mouth City Slicker. It’s COUNTRY HAM not meant for Soy boy’s and fru fru’s !
Review: Best ham and I don’t need to look for others anymore. - This was the best ham I’ve had in years and there was very little fat, I’ve tryed others and rays have my 5stars,, I freeze around 3 slices each, must have a dozen bags, some people complain about too much salt so I put 3 slices in a bowl with water for about 18hrs and wash off a couple times and in the pan they go and they still have some salt but it just right. Oh make sure you put in refrigerator when you soak your ham overnight, good eating.

## Features

- DESCRIPTION: Rays 16 lb Whole SLICED Bone-in Country Ham is machine-sliced to order by our butchers, from hock to butt, with thick slices measuring approximately 5/16 inch (0.3125"). This SLICED Country Ham should not be baked but must be cooked to an internal temperature of 155°F, traditionally by pan-frying or used as a seasoning in various recipes.
- A TASTE FROM ANOTHER PLACE IN TIME: Rays Country Ham is more than just ham—it’s heritage. Crafted with century-old curing methods, our salt-cured, air-dried ham reflects traditions from North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains. Every slice delivers the deep, savory richness of authentic country ham. For over 75 years, Rays has been a Southern favorite, offering an unmistakable flavor that stands the test of time. Taste true Blue Ridge craftsmanship in every bite.
- RICH, BOLD FLAVOR – TRADITIONALLY CURED While many products labeled “country ham” may be unexpectedly mild, Ray’s preserves the deep, savory flavor that made Ray Goad’s legendary Country Ham Biscuits famous. Hand-rubbed with a classic blend of salt, pepper, and brown sugar, this Blue Ridge Mountain dry-cured and aged ham delivers the salty, robust taste that Country Ham lovers expect. If you’re seeking a genuinely authentic Country Ham experience, this is the flavor you’ve been craving.
- WHO WILL LOVE THIS HAM: Devoted Country Ham lovers who miss that true, salt, and dry-cured taste will feel at home with Rays Country Ham. This ham is for you if you grew up in the Southeast, where Country Ham & Biscuits are a staple at the breakfast table, family picnics, and funerals. It’s also a heartfelt gift of remembered flavors of traditional ham curing. Sharing good food is more than nourishment; it’s how we connect, reflect, and celebrate the ties that bring us together.
- FIRST-TIME BUYERS: WHAT TO EXPECT: If you’ve never tried authentic Country Ham, prepare for a bold, salty taste combined with a deep, savory flavor that differs from typical sweet "city" hams. If you prefer a milder flavor, soak the slices in a dish of cold water for 10 minutes to reduce the saltiness. However, this ham is for those who appreciate a traditional Southern salt and dry-cured ham, with the robust, savory character that has made Country Ham a beloved favorite for generations.
- COOKING & STORAGE (OWNER’S MANUAL INCLUDED): You’ll receive an Owner’s Manual with cooking instructions—helpful soaking tips, quick skillet-frying methods, and optional red-eye gravy recipes. Once opened, wrap and refrigerate or freeze for future meals. This flexible format ensures you can enjoy hearty portions of real Blue Ridge Mountain–cured ham when the craving strikes.
- A TIMELESS SOUTHERN TRADITION DELIVERED Ray Goad was the first to serve Country Ham Biscuits for breakfast in a Fast-Food restaurant, continuing a 75-year family tradition of dry-cured, aged country ham from North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains. Now, you can enjoy this bold, old-fashioned flavor at home—a cherished tradition, perfected and conveniently available for those who crave and truly appreciate authentic Country Ham. .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GREAT country ham!
*by V***O on October 31, 2020*

We love country ham and look forward to our visits south to enjoy it at Waffle House. This ham is even better than WH - sliced slightly thicker, with a salty-sweetness that is SO good. Buy a ham iron (or even a burger press) to keep the surface on the heat when you sear it.
