FAMILY FARMHOUSE FAVORITES FROM JONES DAIRY FARM

AVAILABLE NATIONWIDE FOR THE HOLIDAYS

 FORT ATKINSON, Wis. ( October 1 6 , 2006) – Whether it’s a hand crafted old fashioned ham or the company’s hallmark all natural breakfast sausage, consumers can purchase many of their favorite Jones Dairy Farm products just in time for the holiday season through the company’s web store at www.jonesdairyfarm.com, said President Philip Jones , Jones Dairy Farm, a sixth-generation family business that’s been making all natural breakfast sausage since 1889.

 “Since many of our products are not available year-round or can’t be found in some parts of the country, we’re pleased to offer many of our family’s most treasured product offerings as holiday gift items for your own family, friends and co-workers,” said Jones.  “For example, we’ve been making our specialty hams the same way for more than a century.  We don’t water them down or add fillers. Each ham is hand crafted and cured with our original family recipe using real hickory-wood smoke and premium brown sugar.  The result is a natural juice ham bursting with farm-fresh flavor that makes a perfect centerpiece for any holiday meal.” 

 In addition to the quality hams, Jones Dairy Farm also offers a selection of other company favorites like all natural pork sausage, old fashion slab bacon and country-style scrapple.  The following is a sampling of some of the items currently available via the Jones Dairy Farm website:

·        Old Fashioned Whole Hickory Smoked Ham

Some consider this to be the crowning achievement of the Jones family.  It starts with the original Jones family recipe and the finest pork.  Each ham is vat-cured for more than a month, then carefully cold-smoked for days in a specially designed smoke house for several days.  Finally, it’s packaged in old fashioned paper wrap and tied by hand.   

·        Whole, Fully Cooked, Hickory Smoked Ham

This classic bone-in ham is hand-crafted with more than 100 years of Jones family pride and tradition.  Juicy and tender, every bite is filled with hickory-smoked flavor and farm-fresh goodness.  It’s also fully cooked so it can be reheated and served with little work or worry. 

·        Whole, Fully Cooked, Semi-boneless Ham

This ham delivers the classic, farm-fresh flavor of a Jones bone-in ham, but with fewer bones to carve around. 

·        Jones Family Ham

Wonderful things can come in small packages.  In this case, it’s the famous, mouth-watering Jones Dairy Farm family ham.  You get the same farm-fresh, hickory-smoked flavor, but in a convenient 5-pound boneless version. 

·        Old Fashioned Fully Cooked Rack of Pork

This fully cooked, 6-rib “center cut” rack of pork makes a special holiday meal. It's made with the old fashioned cure that Jones perfected over 100 years ago, and then smoked over real hickory wood.
