If classified as a specific cut like ham

If ground from ham meat specifically, it may revert to ham subheading 0203.12 rather than generic processed.

0210.99Lower: 12.3% vs 17.5%

If salted or cured

Any salting elevates it to Chapter 2 meat preparations, no longer 'fresh'.

0713.33Lower: 10% vs 17.5%

If dried or dehydrated

Drying removes it from fresh meat entirely into dried leguminous vegetables? No—dried pork is 0210.
