Berkshire hogs fed on
apples, walnuts, and acorns
raised on pasture at Cameron Farms
Since every Smoking Goose recipe begins on the farm, we're proud to begin this holiday special with Berkshire hogs raised on pasture and fed on apples, walnuts, acorns, and non-gmo grain at Cameron Farms in Lebanon, Indiana.

After hand-trimming these whole-muscle hams, we cured them under a dry rub spiked with vanilla beans and allspice. To highlight this delicious pork and holiday spice, each ham smoked slow and low over sweet pecan wood.

Trees and halls aren't the only things that should get trimmed this time of year. Decorate your Pecan-Smoked Heritage Ham with the house-made Indiana Sorghum and Indiana Apple Cider Glaze we include with each ham.

Fully cooked and simple to heat and serve, these limited-edition hams are only available by ordering online here. Be sure to place your order asap as quantities are limited!
