Excellent
Excellent quality!!!I quartered it and vacuum packed it and put it in the freezer. Taking it out of the freezer and wrapping a piece up in paper towel to let it dry for a few days in the fridge. Perfect slicing conditions and very authentic taste!

Delightful, especially if you have a friend who owns a slicing machine :-)
I had this on my to buy list for quite a while. I finally bought it in May '22. There happened to be a coupon offer on it at the time. I lived in Italy for a while, and love San Danieli prosciutto, and many other Italian pork products. I've also lived in Germany, and am also a big fan of closely related German hams, so I had a very good idea of what I was going to be getting. The product arrived quickly and in perfect shape. At the time of purchase, the hams were advertised as being 5 lbs on average. The one I got was 5.7 lbs, which made it an even better buy.Since it is smoked and shelf stable, I stashed it my refrigerator, and did not actually start enjoying it until August. The flavor is excellent. I have an extensive set of knives, and so for me slicing it is not a major issue. However, getting large thin slices is a challenge, and I think this product is even more enjoyable when you can in fact slice it very thinly. Perhaps I will get better at it the more I practice. That is a happy thought. I have rarely wished that I had a slicing machine, but it would be much easier to generate consistently thin slices if I did own one. If I knew someone who worked in a deli I would bribe them to slice it for me. :-)I do really enjoy the flavor and the texture. It takes me back to the Bavarian Alps where local shops sell the German version of this, a product that I greatly enjoy. I am working my way through it. It is very flavorful, and a small amount goes a long way. As others have suggested, a thin slice atop warm bread, toasted or grilled, is a delight. I have also julienned some of the thicker slices and added them to plain cooked pasta, and it adds a great deal of flavor. If you bake pizzas at home, topping them with thinly sliced or julienned Speck after they come out of the oven is an interesting alternative to bacon, sausage, or ham. The idea is to merely warm the Speck and avoid cooking it. I'm pondering the addition of diced Speck to pea, lentil, and bean soups just before serving, or offering a dish of the Speck so that friends can add it or choose not to. Baked potatoes with diced pieces of Speck? The more you think about it, the more ways of using this product come to mind. I'm enjoying the product, and highly recommend it. When I am finished with it, I will most certainly be happy to buy this product again.

Very tasty, great value
This is really tasty Speck, just as I know it from Germany. The smell alone is heavenly. It's a big chunk, I cut mine into 3 pieces and vacsealed/froze two, we're already done with one part, will be slicing some of part two today.It really helps to have access to a meat slicer, but a very sharp knife and some skills will also get you very thin slices. I like my Speck so thin that you can look through it, easy task with a slicing machine, a budget one will do just fine for years.This Speck with some very good German style bread and good butter is just wonderful, I will certainly buy this again.Pay attention to the delivery date, it does get shipped in an insulated box with icepack but that had melted by the time it got to me. Everything was still cool, and it's no problem, since this is shelf stable w/o cooling, but it's best to not have it sit in a hot truck or warehouse on a hot summer weekend.This is a big piece of Speck, so also ideal to buy together with friends and family and divide after delivery.I'll be checking out what other tasty things this vendor offers.

Tough as nails
Really looked tasty according to the picture of product. Always wanted to try a ham (or whatever this foreign cured chunk of organic matter is). If I had received what was advertised, I might have been happy, but what I got was mass of skin, tough fat and "meat" with serious bands of what I assume was fat that is not even similar to bacon fat due to its toughness and unchewability. I wound up frying some to see if it would improve flavor or quality, and it did help the meat some, but the skin and fat turned out even worse. Maybe I should have slow cooked it or a day or so. Will NOT order this product again. Next time I need my pork/ham/bacon fix, I will buy American, AND save a lot of money in the process.

It taste good but cutting it thin is very hard to do with skin on it.

Don't waste your money; there are much tastier products available at a similar price.
Sadly, the meat is tastless,even though it's obviously fully cured. It also lacks the velvet smooth less you would expect in a product in the prosciutto class.

Amazing Quality!
I'm glad I made the leap and ordered this. It's exactly as pictured and of amazing quality and taste. Will buy again!!! Anyone having trouble with eating this ham, it's probably sliced way too thick. Prosciutto is not heavy and has to be sliced paper thin!!! I put mine in the freezer just firm it up and to remove the fat cap, personal preference and I remove the fat from all the hams I purchase. Also, lightly frozen makes it easier to slice. We have a simple home slicer and it works like a charm; a professional slicer isn't really needed here. We've enjoyed this ham tremendously and it has a wonderful flavor and isn't super salty like a lot of them can be.
