@Dyal_SC - if any one can do it up right...Hope it is thawed by then.  Enjoy the cook.  Looking forward to the reviews as I have only been down the brisket and steak product line with SRF but that is as good as it gets for me.

Nope, not this time Fock.  Gonna contemplate it tomorrow @Ozzie_Isaac .    You have any plans yet for yours?

I've been through the whole gamut of hams.  Store brand, Honey Baked, and the best I've had which is local smoked Shriners ham and only available on Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter.

I've done cold, oven, and my favorite which is double smoked.  Tried lots of glazes too, but nothing better than local butchered and smoked midwestern ham.

Really excited to try this!!  Wish I could take Friday off.

Thinking Sous Vide to 137, then finish higher heat on the egg.  Simple, but really let the ham shine.  My night time reading will be the preperation guide SRF sent.

That's what I did at Christmas. Just egg and maple smoke. It was goooooood

@Ozzie_Isaac - if its like the ones with beef it will be short read.  Ham to 140*F so sous vide to 137?  Of course I have no experience with the SV cook method.  Regardless, enjoy the cook and eats.

 I get bills in the mail, you get ham.  You win!

 SRF prep says heat in oven fat cap up at 325 till IT is 140.

I'm thinking Sous Vide to 137, then finish in Egg to 140.  Last kick at the end with higher heat to render some surface fat and crisp it.

I'm thinking off the cuff here.  Hope @SRFShane doesn't wish he sent the ham somewhere else!

..darn..was hoping that I'd witness a rich man's ham cooked the 'peon' way..just in case..well..you know..Sous Vide it is!
I suppose that this is the way to go if you want the best of both worlds in a massive chunk of pork.

I got mine as well. Will be serving it up at Salado pre or after party.

Nice haul!

SRFShane

Not that you guys need it, but we did put together a little "how-to" content for for the hams here:  http://www.snakeriverfarms.com/how-to-cook-a-ham/ 

There's also a couple of recipes there if you want to try them - I've done the peach pomegranate glaze and it was pretty awesome.  That said, I don't glaze these usually - I'm a huge ham fan and this is the best I've ever had, so I just want to taste the ham.  

Hope you all enjoy and we get some good pictures out of it!  And, for the record, looking for honest feedback - you're not going to hurt my feelings if it doesn't suit your taste buds!

I got a new custom growler (64 oz glass) today in the mail. Seems to me that ham would go down awfully nice paired with a nice IPA.....just sayin.

My mailman delivered too!  He was my Daddy and gave my Mommy a pkg. Priority service in the 70s

I'd score it a few times and throw it on the egg at about 325-350 and smoke it with some pecan chunks until 140 degrees. No seasoning, no glaze, no nothing. Just let the ham shine on its own. 

Just my my two cents.

Since I won't make it to the preparty I can only hope it is served at the after party.  And that I can peel @caliking off of it long enough to get a bite.

I did one at Christmas and the family said it was the best ham they had ever eaten. Hope you enjoy yours.
