I want to get the very best (in quality, not size), and I want it delivered precisely on Thanksgiving Wednesday. I’ve heard that Omahu has declined in quality, so I’m looking at [http://www.smokehouse.com](http://www.smokehouse.com) 's city hams (admittedly, only because they advertise in Skymall). I’ve tried Honeybaked Ham in the past, but I’ve eaten at other places to know that much better spiral-cut honey-glazed hams exist out there. Any recommendations? ---

If you want to get the _very_ best, then take a look at [Kurobuta](http://www.snakeriverfarms.com/products/kurobuta-ham.asp) hams. The price is, ahem, rather steep. ---

Ham instead of turkey? Why do you hate America?
