More food-porn.

More Spanish Iberian ham pictures.
The guy shaving off the slices of ham has a special jig to hold the ham steady while he’s working on it. Note that the hoof is left on the ham throughout processing and serving. Just try that over here. lol.
Also some pictures of sliced, ready to eat sausages.

That’s a tough one. A lot of their processed sausages and meats are dry-cured and more difficult to make as a home processor. Not impossible, but definitely takes some equipment and expertise that I do not have currently have.
I probably will be keeping my eyes open for local sources of the different charcuterie meats. That stuff seems to be showing up on more and more restaurant menus and some of it is pretty good.

Totally agree! I use a local Asian market here for spices that seem fresher and less expensive than the grocery store spice racks.
They also have a nice assortment of specialty pork cuts that work out well for sausage making. Where else are you going to find pork liver to make liver sausage, although I will occasionally use deer liver for that and it is pretty good.

certain areas of the country are rooted in a heritage or settling of different parts of the world IE some being German or sweetish or Italian and others

their influence can be seen in the local fair at the restrauents that are not on the beaten path

Agree. Some of the best eating can be found at mom and pop ethnic restaurants that cater to the locals and serve authentic dishes.

I use to look for the old truck stops back in the day before things changed just to get something home made quality
