Storied ham festival returns in 2021

Lots of flour, lots and lots of flour, makes anywhere from 12 to 16 pans of dough. The dough is enough for a 10 1/2-foot wide ham biscuit — the world’s largest. It takes a forklift truck to put this biscuit in the oven. “We cut it into squares,” noted Gary Rocca, one of the directors of Helping Hands, which every year makes the oversized biscuit for the annual Trigg County Country Ham Festival. “We slice it down the middle and put a piece of country ham in there,” Rocca continued of one of the highlights of the ham festival. Absent for a year because of the coronavirus, the ham festival is returning in 2021, slated for Oct. 8-9 in downtown Cadiz, and the ham biscuit is returning with it.
