Par smoking 2 brined hams wife wants to finish in the stove

 

Today will be a 14lb turkey on the offset. 48hr dry brine. Spatchcocked.
And a tiny one bone (3lb) prime roast.
Red oak for coals then cherry for the smoke. It's about 45F here today with a good breeze.

The roast is plan B in case I punt the turkey. Having never done one before. It's just my wife and I chowing down.

 

Fresh hams or did you cure them?

 

We did a wet cured them for 10 dayjust took them out after glaze

 

those look fabulous!

 

I scammed out and bought a ham from the meat lab on campus when they were having a sale a few weeks ago. The label said it had a brown sugar brine.
