Default Smoked Ham

Brethren, I am due to smoke a ham for the women's conference at my church on the 29th. I have read up on some things but it all ends up being pulled pork. Don't want that. Any suggestions? Should I reduce the cooking time from 7-8 hrs down to about 5-6 maybe? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have an easier method that everyone just loves. I take one of those store bought, cured, 1/2 hams (I prefere the butt) and smoke it for 4-5 hours at 225. Then I remove it, put it in a pan, do the cross cut thingie, and then baste it with the pinnaple/sugar syrup mix and put it in the oven for about another hour. In other words, my wife and I combined the way we cook ham for an even better result.

Ok Bigdog, I feel you on that one. I was going to use my offset cooker to smoke it with. I guess the oven can be the finisher. Pineapple/syrup, is that brown syryup?

If you have a water pan in your offset, try filling with apple or pineapple juice when doing hams. I prefer to cook the bone in hams as the have a better fat content and won't dry out as much. Spray like you would any other cook, and preferably use a fruit wood.

We use brown sugar, pinnaple juice, and corn syrup. And the oven is only for finishing at 350 to carmalize the glaze.

Interesting idea about the water pan. For wood, I use 80% hickory, 10% mesquite and 10% cherry.
