Homemade ham

I made ham from a small 10-lb picnic and smoked it today. It was a little saltier than I imagined but still excellent. Brined for 7 days in salt, Prague powder and various spices. Smoked for 7 hours at 250-ish, used plate setter with bay leaves and hickory chips. Served with roasted potatoes from the garden and beer-braised cabbage.

Thanks, guys. It's way better, in my opinion. I am accustomed to having country ham this time of year but they are hard to acquire and even harder to make. This was a good enough substitute and there is a lot left for pork and beansblind99 said:Very nice! How's the flavor compare to a store bought ham?
