Ham

Any one ever try a Rose's Bone-in Ham.  I have the opportunity to pick up a 23-24 pounder for $56.  Just wondering if the quality is decent.  Thanks a lot!

2 very good ways to cook a ham on the Egg:

NAKED HAM / SMOKE ONLY

Let me start that for the first 6 years i have only cooked Egerts Ham (this is an outstanding ham Egged on the BGE). 

 

 Several years ago went looking for (did not know this at the time) a naked ham / smoke only.  Looking at other ways to do a ham w/o the burbon, maple syrup, brown sugar, NO ANYTHING. Guys this was outstanding ham. It tasted like ham. It was a 7 lb Cooks ham (shank) and NOTHING was put on it (Nothing). Just smoke: lots of Sugar Maple. Cooked at 300 till 135. I did score the ham deep. Cooked indirect.

New item: just did spiral and worked out fine.

‪Maple-Bourbon Paste (recipe follows)‬

‪10-12 # cooked, ready to eat Ham (bone-in Butt or Shank section) ‬

‪The day before smoking, place ham in a pan flat side down. Inject in multiple locations with maple syrup (use more than 1 cup if it will take it).‬
