In past shows, Luke has talked about making ham from wild hog backstrap. Join him this week as he walks us through the process of sugar curing and smoking a bone-in, whole ham from a feral hog.

This process was well known 50 years ago but has been all but forgotten today.

Making ham at home is easy and you can learn how in today's High Plans Outdoors.
