Thread Name: BS: Country Ham
Subject: RE: BS: Country Ham
Check with regulations on import of meat products into your country before you order. Canada forbids any meat products that lack approval and Australia may have tight regulations as well. The rules are under the Dept. Agriculture here. The rules are not just for health and quarantine reasons, but to protect Canadian producers from competition. Sausage, etc. from Europe is confiscated. Don't tell anyone, but I know "someone" who occasionally brings in a piece of a ham with a mis-labeled declaration slip.
The simple method Catspaw found is worth a try and would be a lot cheaper as well.
Yep, Catspaw, that bacon settle you found the picture of is similar to the one my son-in-law has, except his opens from the back. As a piece of furniture only, it is useless- and large- the width is six feet plus.
