Nonny,

Short of making your own or ordering from the big boys, why not go to
a breakfast joint in LV like this one http://www.usmenuguide.com/mabarkersbreakfast.html

Looks like they've got the country ham part down; if you can put up
with all the faux ma barker ambience crap they dole up; might be worth
going in there for a quick fix.
They might even sell you a few pounds to take home to Mrs. Nonny.
non?
