    100# cyl. too small??

    Curing a ham??

    I have received 2 nice fresh hams over the weekend and I am thinking about trying to cure one of them.  I have eaten some dry cured hams that have been so salty that you could hardly eat them.  I was wondering about a wet cure??  Like soaking it in a solution for a period of time.  I have made...
