Easter Ham and Kielbasi

We went out for a big brunch buffet this morning, so kept it pretty light for dinner.  Had to improvise a bit on the ham due to wrong ingredients in the house.  I was going to go traditional with pineapple rings and cherries, however only had crushed pineapple, and the grand daughter finished off the cherries on her ice cream last week. Scored the ham, inserted some whole cloves and coated the ham with the crushed pineapple, poured a bottle of Woodchuck Granny Smith cider over it.  Added some apple wood, and smoked it for about 90 minutes at 375.  Threw on  the smoked kielbasi for 45 minutes.  Both turned out great with a wonderful double smoked flavor.  May do it this way again.

    Looks good to me brother. How did you like the cider vs more traditional offerings? Would you recommend using it? Again your food looks great. Thanks in advance.

    The cider worked great.  Between the cider and coating in crushed pineapple, this was a very moist ham.  Did not dry out at all, and still picked up the apple smoke flavor.
