Honey Cured Ham for smoking

MikeB · April 2011

I found Egret's recipe for Maple Bourbon Ham on the forum -- looks fantastic. The only ham I could get my hands on is honey-cured. Any thoughts on that combination of a honey cured ham, smoked in the egg with a maple bourbon paste? I was thinking of just going easy on the maple so it isn't too sweet. Any other ideas? The ham is spiral cut. Of course we'll be having guests for this Easter cook. Thanks in advance for any tips.

Don't deviate. The maple won't be too sweet. Most sugars stay on the surface

Thanks -- I am pleased to hear that advice. The recipe sounds too good to mess with.

It's a great recipe

Inwould defer to egret, but I honestly think you could apply it tomany ham (spiral, country, city, honey) and it will be excellent. Ham is such a strong base that it is frankly hard to screw up
