Jeez guys, ya sure made it easy on me figuring out what to cook for Christmas! This sounds great! I must admit, I always thought they'd dry out; thanks for the wisdom!

Edit: And finally I can bust out the hickory without the wife commenting how it makes the food taste hammy!

Glad this popped up - it never would have occurred to me to smoke a spiral cut ham, but now it totally sounds worth doing.

I've never done it but it's very common with the BGE guys. Seems like dozens have done it and they all rave about it. Since I'm curing my own now, probably won't try it this holiday but it sure would be nice to grab one and have it ready in a few hours instead of a week!

Maple-Bourbon Ham*
by John Hall (egret)

Ingredients :

Maple-Bourbon Paste (recipe follows)
10-12 # cooked, ready to eat ham (bone-in Butt or Shank section)
1/2-1 cup Maple Syrup
Cherry and Apple Chunks

Procedure :

The day before smoking, place ham in a pan flat side down. Inject in multiple locations with maple syrup (use more than 1 cup if it will take it).
Smear the Maple-Bourbon Paste all over the exposed surfaces (except flat side). Cover loosely with plastic wrap and put in refrigerator until ready to smoke (You can remove ham from refrigerator up to one hour before cooking).
Stabilize egg at 250° with plate setter (legs up) regular grid with raised grid attached. Put 3 or 4 good size chunks of wood on coals, then place ham on raised grid. Cook until internal temperature reaches 140° (this should take about 5 hours).

Maple-Bourbon Paste

2 Tbls. pure Maple Syrup
2 Tbls. freshly ground Black Pepper
2 Tbls. Dijon or Honey-Dijon Mustard
1 Tbls. Bourbon
1 Tbls. Vegetable Oil
1 Tbls. Paprika
1 Tbls. Onion Powder
2 tsp. coarse Salt, either kosher or sea salt
I have tried this several times you can't go wrong & the drippings make incredible gravy

The Big Bob Gibson cookbook has a good spiral ham recipe & glaze in it.

So I must say the ham was fantastic, I started with a 9lb spiral cut with natural juices from Walmart...Sam's Club brand. I fired up the WSM with 2 smaller sized chunks of pecan wood and brought her up to temp @225F. The ham was sitting in a foil pan cut side down with 1 can of crushed pineapple surrounding it. I let it go for about 2hrs with the temperature never reaching above 230F, pulled when the internal was about 120F. The last half hour the ham was basted every 10 minutes with a maple syrup, all spice, dijon, fresh cracked pepper, and bourbon (JD) glaze mixture that was simmered on the stove for about 10 minutes until all was thoroughly blended. The ham was sweet yet the slight wee bit of bite from the Jack Daniels could be tasted, not overpowering though. This folks was a moist ham and anyone who would say that spiral cuts dry out is obviously doing something terrribly wrong because I will not go back. Thanks for nudging me in the right direction and I was never so happy to be wrong concerning my wife's suggestion again. Sorry about the lack of quality photos but it was dynamite!
