Riffing off of this recipe from Bon Appetit: http://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/2011/12/holiday-ham-with-riesl...

1 9lb ham
2 cups white wine
1 cup water
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
1 Tbs thyme
1 tablespoon honey
1 Tbsp mustard
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Small pinch of kosher salt

Bake the ham for ~3 hours, until it reaches 110°F, basting occasionally,
with 1 cup of white wine and 1 cup of water poured in at the beginning to add steam

Not really hearty enough for a meal, but a nice (non-vegetarian) pasta salad to bring to a party or have as a side dish. Courtsey of Bon Appetit, but slightly modified.

Ingredients

2 ounces thinly sliced pancetta (Italian bacon)
4 ounces orecchiette (ear-shaped pasta)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons Champagne vinegar, white wine vinegar, or rice vinegar
1 1/2 cups 3/4" square diced pieces peeled cantaloupe
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh mint

We modified a recipe from Bon Appetit to spice it up and re-balance this posole.

Roasted Pork

• 1 pound boneless pork shoulder (Boston butt)
• ½ red onion, sliced
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• Dash smoked salt
