COUNTRY HAM AND RED-EYE GRAVY
An absolute favorite southern breakfast, especially during the holidays, is country ham and red-eye gravy with biscuits. Several years ago a true southern gentleman gave me a few tips on how to cook country ham to a tender delight and an easy delicious red-eye gravy. Country hams are salt-cured for one to three months.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°. With the side of a large knife, scrape both sides of country ham to remove any whiteish residue from the ham, if there is any. (This is an important step). Discard residue. Do not remove fat from the ham at this point. Place country ham in a 9 x 13 baking dish or a large iron skillet. Pour about 1/2 can of coke over ham, this depends on how many slices you are preparing. (I usually cook 2 large slices and use 1/2 can [6 ozs.] of coke). Cover ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake about 20 minutes or until tender. Be sure and reserve juices from ham. Trim the fat from the ham. In a skillet on top of the stove, pour reserved ham juices, add sugar or packet of sweetner and about 1/2 cup brewed coffee. Heat until boiling. Pour into serving container. Enjoy with ham, some hot biscuits and scrambled eggs.
HAM WITH RED EYE GRAVY
The way the bitter coffee marries with the sweet, smoky fat is far from unpleasant, and infinitely better than simply pouring the pan drippings over your food.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium-high. Cook ham, adding 1/2 Tbsp. butter if ham is lean to help the browning process, until browned and fat has rendered, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer ham to a platter.
- Pour coffee into the same skillet and cook over medium-high heat, scraping skillet with a wooden spoon to deglaze and loosen any browned bits. Add broth and sugar; simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced to about 1/4 cup, 3-4 minutes. Add 1 Tbsp. butter and whisk until emulsified, about 1 minute more. Pour gravy into a small bowl or serving vessel and serve drizzled over or alongside ham.
RED EYE GRAVY
This southern classic is more of a thin sauce than a traditional thick gravy. It's made with strong coffee and drippings from a slice of cooked country ham. Red eye gravy has intense flavor with salty and bitter notes that pair well with biscuits, grits and ham. If you prefer a more mellow flavor, add a dash of brown sugar. -Peggy Woodward, Shullsburg, Wisconsin
