Read some post on smoking a pre cooked/smoked ham. They were a lot smaller than mine(21lb). Have the temp, and internal temp. Anybody have an idea how long this should take to smoke, and what amount of wood. (using Cherry). Will be using a #2.
 
Scooter, I don't really have a time frame for you, but it should be pretty close to the instructions on the ham for oven cooking.  It probably says 275 at 15 minutes/lb so I'd increase that to 20 minutes/lb as an estimate at 250 (with the idea that it's much better to be done earlier than expected than later and then do a cooler rest with double foil and a towel)
 
I never add wood during a smoke, including long smokes like brisket or butts.    If you go with 5-6oz of wood, you should be fine for the duration.
