So a friend of mine asked if I would smoke a couple bone in hams from a hog they butchered themselves for a fund raiser Saturday night. I said sure! But then my Friday evening got busy that meant I had to do it Thursday night. Well I got everything on the smoker about 7pm. I have never done anything quite this big before. They barely fit in my vertical smoker. But we got 'er done. I'm afraid I may have taken them too high before I foiled them (pulled them off and foiled at 150) but we will see how they taste after they get pulled.
Some ribs they gave me to throw on too. I didn't trim anything up or even remove the membrane...
Rubbed and ready to go!
Smoker was full!!!!!
Meanwhile my wife and I dined on a smoked pork tenderloin I had in the freezer from a previous smoke. Along with a bottle of wine...
Pulled off the smoker and foiled with apple juice and into the oven to finish. This is just before I foiled them. I think this was sometime around 1:30 or 2 am. I am a little tired today at work since I only had a few hours sleep... lol
Ribs are done... about 1:30am
Done... about 6am this morning I pulled them out of the oven at about 200* internal... Don't mind my messy stove top some juices made a mess I had to clean up...
These won't be pulled until Satuday, After resting in foil they are now in a cooler on ice. But I had a sample this morning and it was very good! But I'm still a little afraid of it being dry...
