Xmas Ham - 2015

[SuperDave]

I started with a 3 ounce mix of Apple, Cherry and Plum wood for a 9.9 pound Kirkland spiral ham.

Smoked at 275 degrees until IT hit 135.

Tried a new post smoke glazing technique with a spiced sugar mix and my butane torch.

Cheesy Au gratin potatoes.

And Karen made a pineapple orange cake for dessert.

Looks fantastic Dave! What did everyone think of it? Did you also smoke the Cheesy Au gratin potatoes?

Looks great, Dave!  How'd you like the glaze/torch finish?

There was a spicy bite from the rub with the toasted sugar crust over the top.  I really liked it. 

Tman, I did the potatoes in the oven until they were almost done and finished in the smoker.  I do the potatoes covered while in the oven so didn't bother putting in the smoker until the end.
