Got a spiral ham. Just over 8lbs. since it's just the folks and I this year. Mom is insisting I cook it in the oven. Bummer. Guess I'll have to smoke one on my own time. ;)

Jeff, once your mom tastes a twice-smoked, she'll never let you cook a ham any other way!

OK, I gotta join the double smoke club!

I'm putting a 9 lb bone in "shank portion smoked ham" in the #2 for Christmas dinner. Seemed cheap at $1.30/lb.http://smokinitforums.com/Smileys/default/cool.gif

Am I on the right track here:
Mustard, then rub w/ "bone suckin' sauce"? Sit overnight in fridge?
Sounds like around 220F for 3-5 hrs until 145F IT should do the trick? Water pan of apple juice and 3 oz. of hickory or maple or cherry? Apply glaze about 30 minutes before done?

Really looking forward to a big chunk of pork coming out of the smoker. And the bone and bark for bean soup sounds great, too!

Tom, I don't think a sauced rest overnight will do much.  The skin is already smoked, so I'm not sure it will penetrate much.  I just coat in spicy brown mustard and a rub, then smoke at 225 to IT of 140...comes out great!  Keepin' it simple!

No overnight in the fridge? Even better! I LIKE simple.
Thanks!

Yeah, it's already cooked, so lots of prep just doesn't work the same as raw meat.

Well, the Christmas twice-smoked ham was a huge hit. "Best ham ever" was the consensus.

I used 3 oz. maple, 225F for 4 1/2 hrs got it up to 135F. I planned to pull it out at 140F, but the other food was ready to go. I figured it had already been cooked, so was safe to quit early. Brushed on glaze at 4 hrs.

We'll be doing that again!

Sorry, no photos. I was too distracted.
