Ham it up!

I just can't resist a peek into any smoked pork shop, no matter how potentially gross it could be, like this one, for example.  Take a close look at the counter they are working on.  It's a large tree trunk! I wonder when the last time was they sanded that thing.

No I would not buy anything here, but it's just fascinating to watch it all happen. Pulling the pork out of the cardboard boxes, trimming the fat, placing it carefully on the counter for display.  Wonderful!
