I bought a nice solid chunk of smoked pork shoulder on Saturday. $8.46. ( I prefer these over those shank hams they sell) Boiled it to render some of the fat. Once done,I trim off the fat thats on it then start to roast it in the oven Sunday for our dinner. (There is only two of us here) we had our nice ham and scallop taters and veggie dinner. I sliced some for the next days sandwiches for our lunches at work. Monday, I sliced more for our lunches for Tuesday .Tuesday night,I had fried ham and eggs and toast for my dinner. The mrs,s had a ham sandwich again today for her lunch. Tonight, I trimmed what I could from it. Chopped it up,along with a pepper and mushrooms and made a nice alfrado sauce for our noodle dinner. Still enough for my solo dinner Thursday night. The remaining bone and what meat is left,is currently boiling away in a pot with a few onions and celery stokes, for the next couple of days hot soup and fresh made bread.
$8.46 goes along way when you make it.
I love leftovers.
