Gameday Ham

GreenhawK

Getting ready for the SEC Championship in a few hours.  My neighbor has been on me for a few weeks to cook a ham that he had, so here it is.

First I put some Billy Bones on it.  This is the same rub I use on Butts.  I have had a lot of luck with it in competitions too.

Then I put Honey over it.  My wife's grandparents make this honey and sell it.  

After rubbing it down and glazing it in honey, I put some more rub over the top.  The honey helps the rub stick.  It is in a pan of apple juice, and I use Apple wood for smoke.

I don't know why this one is upside down, but here it is finished.  The honey and rub make a real nice bark with a lot of flavor, and the apple juice along with being on the egg make it stay really nice and moist.

How big was the ham and about about how long did you cook it? Did you go to the same internal temp as a boston butt?

Shawn, that is a cured cooked ham he's fixing. He probably took it to about 140.
