Broadbent’s

Broadbent B & B Foods has been producing Old Fashioned Country Ham since 1909.  A Truly American Food that has been on this continent since colonial days.  Country Ham and Dry Cured Bacon were staples that sustained many of our first settlers as they moved west.  Climates had to be just right to cure hams in the days before electricity and Kentucky's climate fit the bill.  Therefore, the Broadbent family brought those curing traditions with them when they settled in Kentucky.  They continued to use them to dry cure and preserve their pork.  Broadbent’s still dry cures Country Ham, Bacon, and Sausage the old-fashioned way, like our forefathers.

In 2018, a Broadbent Grand Champion Country Ham sold at a charity auction for $2.8 Million Dollars. Broadbent has been named Grand Champion Country Ham 19 times at the Kentucky State Fair.
