Combine all the ingredients in a large container/pot/tub/5 gallon bucket, whatever you have. Stir it up.
Place the meat in the container. Be sure the meat is entirely submerged before replacing the lid. If necessary, place a plate or other weight on top of the meat to keep it covered with the brine.
Place in the refrigerator and let it cure for 3 days.
Take the ham out of the brine and rinse well with cool water to remove all trace of salt; lightly pat dry with a cloth towel.
Allow the ham to continue to air-dry in the refrigerator on a rack for another 24 hours before cooking or freezing.
