Black Forest Ham by Schaller & Weber (9 pound)
Known as America's original Black Forest Ham, and worth every calorie! Black Forest Ham is one of the most famous hams in America, and the style as we know it was created by Ferdinand Schaller nearly a century ago. He knew that the methods he’d learned in Germany for preparing a schwarzwälder stinking, which involved an extended curing processes, wouldn’t be able to keep up with the demands of hungry New Yorkers. Putting his chacuterier training to work, he experimented until he settled on a ham that is smoked and then molasses-dipped for rich color and a touch of sweetness. The black forest ham was born, and for 80 years it’s been a staple at the Schaller & Weber store and a favorite among their customers.
