    Donald Allen,
    try dr. chicken's double smoked ham (i don't know where it is on the forum, but you could do an archive search). .i don't inject mine but i've had great results with the following:[p]assuming your ham is pre-cooked:[p]set up your egg indirect, grid over inverted plate setter with drip pan. ..use lots of wood in your fire (you want a lot of smoke), i've used apple and cherry, but other woods work too. ..slather the ham with lots of dijon mustard and brown sugar . ..put in the egg at 250 degrees dome temp for about 1/2 hour per pound (plan to pull it at 140 internal temp. . .pour orange juice into the drip pan. ..with 1 hour to go, brush the ham with a glaze made from 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, 2 tbspoons apple cider vinager, 2 tablspoons orange juice concetrate . couple of teaspoons dry mustard. . .brush this on every 15 minutes or so for the last hour. . ..[p]its fantastic!!

    Donald Allen, since you already have it you gotta cook it and here's the link to the Dr Chicken recipe which seems so popular...however...huh, huh...I believe it is totally out of character to use any pre-smoked meat in the world's best Smoker / Grill. If you do it right you can slice it (140 internal) or run it up to 190 and use it like pulled pork. Anyway just my opinion and you "Quite Welcome to it"...Good Luck w/ the ham.

    Donald Allen, I used three chunks of mesquite and it was way too much smoke, might go easy first time round

    eggor,
    mesquite is kinda strong . . .i usually load up with 3 or 4 good chunks of dry apple/cherry. . .lots of smoke but not too strong. . .but you are correct. .try some the first time, and next time either add more or less to your liking. . .
