So my family decided beach camping was more fun than Easter dinner this year. Now normally I would join them but I am sailing on Saturday and cant make it back up north in time.

My friends decided to do a dinner and I was going to do 2 spiral hams from Costco. 1 in the oven and one on the WSM and wanted to know if anyone has warmed up these pre cooked hams on a smoker before. Any tips?

Sounds like a good idea to me.
 
Spiral hams can dry out if cooked too long. I pan the cooked spiral ham in apple cider/juice and warm very slowly in the smoker (200°) until the it hits 136°. During the tented rest it will climb over 140° which is the USDA safe serving temperature for cooked ham.

I apply the smoke in the beginning but then turn to just a heating process after an hour.
 
Tin pan with about a half inch of apple or pineapple juice, flat side down. Rubbed/drizzled with melted brown sugar and butter and spritzed with pineapple juice. Smoked it about 4 hours at 200-225 on Christmas 2013. Turned out amazing, don't think I'll ever put it in the oven again.
