Anyone ever cure & smoke a ham?
We are picking up a 19 lb fresh hind pig leg this Fri. It will then go into a bucket of water w/ salt, sugar, some spices & sodium nitrite for 8 days of curing. Then, on Christmas Eve I will slow cook & smoke on the grill for 5- 8 or more hours, using apple wood for smoke.
I found a recipe online for glazing that sounds really good....has 1/4 cp whiskey & jar of apricot preserves in it. Can't wait!!
