Make a huge pot of beans and put some of it to use there, mediocre ham will covered over by the flavors of the beams and still add some ham flavor to the beans.

Red beans and rice. I usually use smoked hocks but ham is a good addition as well.

"It is very mediocre ham, but it was an incredibly good deal."
A temptation that is too seldom encountered. I'm picturing you scouring the classified ads when you come across an 8pt two line ad "Ham, in bulk, must sell. Reasonable offers." You picked up the ham from a thin old man with a pot belly who wore a dirty singlet and had a permanent cigarette in his mouth. He delivered it in a Styrofoam box (he kept the box).

Don't think I didn't see you deleting your story about me purchasing mediocre ham.
I will never take offense to anything, except for you not writing the story I know dwells deep in your heart.

You should write a short story about me buying ham.

Just take the list of ways to prepare shrimp from that nigger in the pedophile moron movie and replace shrimp with ham. That should take care of your "too much ham" problem. Also, there is never a too much ham problem.

You can cube some meat and put it into bean soup, split pea soup, or gumbo, for a cold winter day. Fry a slice and serve with eggs for breakfast. Hopefullly it isn't too salty.

Cook shit in it when butter is not appropriate.
Perhaps cube it and sear it, use it as a 'Poor Poet's Pancetta"

Why don't you want to freeze it? I'd portion part of it and freeze. Anything where you're cubing meat and cooking it, toss in a small portion of ham to go with it.
Brown beans and ham (make it with chicken stock) is an awesome cold-weather food. I'm going to be making that this weekend.

I... I don't know...
Now that I reflect on it, I think I might have a weird psychological aversion to freezing unfrozen food. I have no problem eating frozen food, but freezing the unfrozen...
Come to think of it, I can't remember ever having frozen any unfrozen food before in my entire life...

I got a cheap vacuum sealer and some bags years ago. It's great to store things like the ham. Something on sale? Get lots and freeze it.

Sandwiches, casserole, beans and ham, just eat the ham with dinner or breakfast, I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of possibilities. But those are the main ham staples I go with.
