I know I've seen a few threads on smoking fresh hams (I have them bookmarked somewhere around here) but as it tis the season for ham, I'd welcome any advice and/or tips on smoking my 1st fresh ham.
Definitely going the wet cure route (for time's sake) but wonder if pink salt is truly necessary or if a regular brine will do. Not really all that concerned about the ham being "pink" just in it tasting "hammy".
What temps do you usually smoke these at? I tend to run at around 240º when cooking butts. Is that in the pocket for ham?
Any & all advice/experiences greatly welcomed.
