If you're a fan of country ham, the Genuine Smithfield Ham Shoppe is the place for you. Smithfield is commonly known as the "Ham Capital of the World," because they've been in the business since the early 1900's. This shoppe is located on Main Street in the heart of Smithfield, Virginia, located just southwest of Williamsburg. In Smithfield, people take ham seriously. Residents even decorate with pigs and ham around Christmas time, each year.
If you would like to see what all the hoopla is about, stop by the Genuine Smithfield Ham Shoppe. Not only do they have those sugar-cured gems, whole or sliced, they also sell Virginia peanuts, wines, gourmet specialties, pig collectibles, and more.
