Benton's is in TN, but some of the best pork we've ever eaten.  (We live in VA and love Edward's but they are incredibly expensive.)  Never gotten a whole Benton's ham, but the slices are outstanding.  14-17 lb. hams are $65.  

 
 

I have not had their ham, but when I taught at ETSU medical school, the owner's son was one of my students. He brought in some bacon once and it was wonderful. Nice family, smart kid. 

 

Edited to add I guess he's not a kid anymore. This was about 8 or 9 years ago... Time flies.
