OK! I am tired of the same old stuff! I cook a country ham atleast once a year...
What do you folks serve with it when you cook one?
Got one in the oven right now and looking for ideas!

Hi Shadows, I don't know what you usually have with ham, What I like with it is pretty traditional, Sweet Potatos... Baked just like I bake regular potatos, with butter and brown sugar on top are delicious! Deviled Eggs -- Yumm Cole Slaw Green Beans

Thanks! that is what we normaly do too, along with baby carrots in horseradish cream sauce.
I was hoping that there were some off the wall type stuff that I might not have thought of...
I am open to more suggestions.
Oh by the way... I cook this ham in an old fashioned black enamal turkey roaster with 3 cups of apple cider and 1 cup of beer, covered at 300f for 20 minutes a pound.
I have 4 hours to go before I need to start the sides.....

I found this and think I will try it:
* Exported from MasterCook *
Carrots with Jalapenos and Ginger
Recipe By : Jump Up and Kiss Me, by Jennifer Trainer Thompson, page 236 Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Side Dishes Vegetables
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 teaspoons yellow mustard seed 2 tablespoons gingerroot -- finely shredded 4 jalapenos -- (about 4 tablespoon seeded and thinly sliced crosswise 4 cups carrots -- (about 1 pound) peeled and shredded sweet carrots 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice OR apple cider vinegar 1 teaspoon brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons shredded fresh mint -- up to 3 OR chopped fresh cilantro 2 cups nonfat plain yogurt -- (optional)
Serves 4 to 6
Be sure to use sweet, flavorful carrots for this simple salad. As a variation, add 2 cups of nonfat yogurt before serving to make a creamy, Indian-style dish to accompany a curry dinner.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it is very hot. Remove the pan from the heat, add the mustard, and cover to prevent the seeds from popping out of the skillet. Shake the pan gently over the heat until the popping subsides, about 10 seconds.
Uncover the pan and add the ginger and the chiles. Cook, stirring for about 1 minute until the chiles soften. Stir in the carrots and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the carrots turn bright orange and are slightly softened. Stir in the lime juice, sugar, and salt and cook for another minute. Stir in the mint, and remove the pan from the heat. Taste and season as desired with more salt, lime juice, and mint. Serve cool, but not cold.
