Two more birds and my first ham. I messed up the ham from the get go. When I scored it, I only did it in one direction. I got side tracked and forgot to make the slices in the opposing direction. I haven't sliced it yet, but will post sliced pic's later.
Nice looking stuff Larry. Twice smoked ham is a treat. In fact Smoke and Spice has a pretty tasty rendition. I like to glaze with Danny's glaze with a healthy shot of maple syurp added.
I usually only think about hams from now till the holidays, but they are so incredibly good on the smoker. Make sure you get a cured ham, not the fresh ham, but it can be either ready to cook or ready to eat. Soooooo gooooooooodd.
Scotty, it was a "ready cook" Smithfield brand ham. I scored it, studded with cloves and basted it with a "Honey Glaze". I cooked it to 140*. The only thing I'll do different next time, is to baste later in the cook. I wasn't really happy with the "look" of the ham but half of that was because I forgot to finish scoring it. Other than that, it was a huge success. I was very skeptical about smoking a ham that was already smoked. But now I would definitely recommend doing one to anyone who hasn't tried one.
They're all salty. LOL I know what you mean though.
Having lived in Smithfield, VA (Ham Capital of the World) for six years... I do like a Country Ham. But even better.... a Smithfield Ham. There is some difference. 8-[
