The stuffed ham got blamed, but IMO it was the turkey that made people sick.

By the way you still eat Hamburger dont you? Think of all the ground beef recalls.

Gilbert Murphy's is the best stuffed ham you can buy , but I do my own and it is better LOL.

:boo: I love everything about Raley's in Ridge, except the stuffed ham. I was even more disappointed that it made it to the Food Network considering, in my opinion, that it is the worst stuffed ham I've ever had. Maybe I am a bit biased because my Mom makes the best. As a matter of fact the old store in LaPlata (I forget the name of it now) that got blown away in the tornado of 2002 used to make it following my families recipe that my Mom passed on to them. :ohwell:


It was Posey's Market - I used to love getting stuffed ham sandwiches for lunch when I worked near there.

I have eaten a lot of stuffed ham in my life and I have to admit we would rather buy it from Andy at Dent's Store then make it ourselves:whistle:. His is the best:drool:, you can buy it by the pound, sliced, sandwhiches, half or whole hams and makes them all year round, he sells so much. I know I buy it year round.

It's the best:buddies:

Stuffed Ham
Chaptico Market’s Recipe

1 corned ham weighing 20 – 25 lbs
Store will de-bone for you
4 lbs of kale
2 large heads of cabbage
1/2 bunch of celery (stalks only)
2 large onions

Chop all ingredients into small pieces. You may use a food processor. Be careful not to chop too fine.

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Blanche cabbage and kale until just soft. Remove and drain. Let your ingredients cool then add chopped onions and celery.
Why would you cook your cabbage and kale beforehand? Now it's too soft and mushy. Chop all ingredients up mix together and stuff into the ham
Spices
¼ - ½ Cup salt
½ Cup black pepper
¼ Cup ground red pepper
½ Cup crushed red pepper
(Amounts vary according to taste)
In large bowl mix spices into stuffing.

Need to add mustard seeds. All this red pepper will make it too spicy for most people. I have only used red pepper flakes.

Stuffing your ham
Cut twelve 3” slits into ham on both sides. Generously stuff the ham until it will hold no more in slits. Place remaining stuffing on top. Wrap ham in cheesecloth.

Cooking
Place ham in a large pot. Bring water to a rolling boil. Reduce heat to low boil and cook ham 20 minutes per pound until it reaches 155 degrees on a food thermometer. Keep water level over ham at all times. Carefully remove ham from pot.

Cooling I have never heard of doing this and :shrug:
Quarter ham and place directly into an ice bath (ice and water to cover entire ham). Add ice frequently!


I have been making stuffed ham for more than 30 years and I've never seen it done that way before.

I've never put celery in my hams :barf:. That is a lot of red pepper to be putting in a ham but the flexibility of the recipe is the great thing about them.

I received questions as to where this store is:
WJ Dent is an updated old fashioned general store, with a great little bar in the back called "Chief's".
It is in Tall Timbers (just off rt 249 towards St. George Island), next to Piney Point Elementary school.
Ask for Andy or Dave Dent.
