Slow-Braised Country Ham with Buttermilk Brine
Clean and simple, this Southern Comfort country ham with buttermilk brine delivers the kind of dinner people ask for again.
Method
Pat the country ham dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
Sear in a hot pan with buttermilk until deeply browned on all sides, then set aside.
Soften garlic powder and shrimp in the same pot, scraping up the browned bits.
Return everything to the pot, add liquid to barely cover, and braise low and slow until fork-tender.
Reduce the sauce until glossy, adjust the seasoning, and finish with fresh herbs.
