Two more turkeys and a ham

[LarryWolfe]

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.

The birds and ham look mighty good to me.

Here's some sliced pic's. I'm eating a ham sandwich right now and this is incredible!! Way better than I thought it would!!

Good job buddy.
You are the turkey (and now ham) man. =D>

 

[txpgapro]

So Larry, tell me, what do you use the kitchen for now? Washing dishes?

 

[Greg Rempe]

Gotta try one of those hams...it looked too good!! :!:

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.

Good Q!

Greg the ham, ugly as it was turned out fantastic. Great flavor, very tender and moist! I'll definitely be doing more in the future!

Larry, what kind of ham was it? Raw or cured?

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.

Gary all the turkeys are for folks at work, the ham was for me. Most of the stuff I've been cooking lately are to fill orders for people at work.

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.

I know the feeling Larry. When people get a taste of the magic we make.. you get so you almost have to beat them off with a stick :badpoke:

 

[Captain Morgan]

Gary, since you are in ham heaven, have you got a glaze recipe you'd care to share? Bill's looked a little scary to me.

 

[Gary in VA]

Sorry Cap... I don't usually glaze a ham... I am more of a country ham kinda guy. I like that salty ham as opposed to sweet ham.

 

[Finney]

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-[
