Or use the ham bone (w/meat still attached) as the basis for a nice pot
of han & beans or ham & bean soup.

I sometimes buy ham bones from Humphrey's market as doggie treats. I'll
use them first to make a pot of this. There isn't a lot of meat on each
bone - but across three there is enough to spiff-up the soup.  Bv)=
