Kentucky's Largest Country Ham & Biscuit
2025-10-11 07:30 - 11:00 | Trigg County Country Ham Festival, West Cadiz Park, Cadiz, KY, 4221, United States
Kentucky’s Largest County Ham & Biscuit And The Vision That Started It All:

One of the most iconic and beloved traditions of the Trigg County Country Ham Festival is the annual unveiling of Kentucky’s Largest Country Ham & Biscuit—a colossal, hand-crafted biscuit sandwich that draws crowds from across the state. Baked in a custom-built “Big Biscuit Oven”, large enough to bake a biscuit over 10 feet in diameter. The oven was completed just in time for its debut at the 1985 Ham Festival—and it’s been a showstopper ever since. The first giant ham biscuit debuted in 1985 and held the official title of World’s Largest Country Ham & Biscuit, even making it into the Guinness Book of World Records as a 4,000-pound phenomenon
