I smoked an 11lb ham shank today (bone in) and finished about 2 hours ago. I wrapped it in a bunch of foil and towels and put it in the cooler. I plan on taking it home to easter dinner tomorrow and reheating it in the oven starting at about 10:30am CST (14 hours from now) for lunch about 12:30.
My question is should I leave it in the cooler all night or will that be hygenically a problem? Do I leave it in there or just put it in the fridge to fully cool and then throw it in the cooler for the trip home tomorrow?
Thanks everyone,
Happy Easter!
