i am needing to smoke a ham (half) and a turkey breast (bone in) at the same time.

the hame weighs 7 lbs. and the turkey breast weighs 9 lbs.

i need them for saturday evening about 5pm.

can i cook these on the egg at the same time?

any recommendations on temp and time would be greatly appreciated!

thanks in advance.

    Both will cook fine at 325°.

    Time always baffles me. Breast pull at 160° (rest up to 165°). Pull ham at 135° - 140° much higher and the ham will dry out. Guessing 3 to 4 hours on the ham and have no idea on the breast as I have only cooked wholes. I use 12 min/# for a guesstimate on the breast.

    Inject the ham with grade A or B maple about 6 to 8 oz. great cook.

    Here are some results of my T-Day Turkey & Ham cook.

    I deli-sliced it for sandwiches, however, the thin slices sure tasted good along with the turkey.
