Country Ham and Beer-Cheese Sammy

Growin’ up, we raised hogs to kill in the fall, so we’d have meat all winter. My Grandpa and Grandma Creech would prepare country hams and hang ’em in the smokehouse, where they would cure to perfection. Now ever’one loves a good ham and cheese sandwich, but my twist of toppin’ a salty slice of country ham with a hoppy, homemade beer cheese is like goin’ from paint-by-numbers to a Picasso.
