Dr. Chicken's Ham

Unknown
edited November -0001 in EggHead Forum
I read the post down below about Dr. Chicken's Ham. It sounds awesome. I am going to cook one for Easter. This will be my first ham. The directions say to wrap the ham in plastic wrap before injecting. Is it supposed to sit in the wrap and injected marinade for a length of time before cooking? If yes, how long? If no, what does the wrapping accomplish?

  • Whitetail,[p]I've made many a Dr. Chicken Ham and have never wrapped it. [p]I assume that the plastic wrap just catches the drippings from your injecting, keeping the liquid close to the meat and making less of a mess. [p]This is such an easy recipe that all you have to worry about is not keeping the ham on the cooker long enough to dry it out. Just heat it up, get some smoke on it, and a good glaze on the outside. Take it off at an internal temp of 140 or less.[p]Lee[p]
