Meaty ham steaks, fabricated from a whole pig that I butcher every week at Cuoco. Served over creamy polenta and a side of broccoli.
[due to heritage pork breed, ham may contain more marbling]

A for composition and flavor. C for ingongrefi quality. The ham was very fatty.
It had a lot of fat and membrane in the ham, so it was hard to cut out the ham and it was tough. Hard to chew.
Hard to believe it had Tom Douglas name on it. Never had polenta before, it was good.
