Hello!Are you saying you want to cure and smoke it or it already is? True Virginia-style hams come from pigs that are only fed peanut shells.If you want the process of curing and smoking go to www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/foods/458-223/458-223.html.It's Va extension co- op.We have two hams in the process of curing now and just finished curing and smoking bacon and it turned out great!Hope this helps.
