Obviously, now that it is January, we need to prepare for grilling season. Fresh ham is the way to go, according to some “South Carolina pit masters.” Lucky for you, travel to South Carolina is not necessary to find this rare cut. These folks salt the ham, smoke it, bake it, cube it, stack it on a sandwich and smother it with sauce. Check out the delectable recipe here: https://www.splendidtable.org/story/2017/06/06/south-carolina-smoked-fresh-ham
