Hey guys!  Ok...here's the story.  My folks asked me if you can smoke a pre-cooked ham....I've never done it, but, have read many threads on here about doing it....so, I said "SURE"!!!  I feel confident that the smoking won't be a problem, but I have a question.  My parents are fans of glazed hams, so I figured on coming up with a nice honey-based glaze.  I watched Jeff's video on smoking hams and I'm not sure what to do.  Can you combine putting a BBQ rub on a ham........then glazing near the end or should I do one or the other?????  I'm worried about the flavor of combining my normal rub with a sweet glaze finish.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  I'm smoking the ham this weekend and will of course post Q-view of the process.

Evening Rich... I have a glaze that people rave about... read this over and think about it.... it really is good...myself I don't get the ham thats already been smoked... just a pre-cooked ham will do...


Maple Bourban Ham​
Maple Bourbon Paste

2 tbs Pure Maple Syrup
2 Tbs freshly grated Black Pepper
2 Tbs Dijon Mustard or Honey Dijon (I use Honey Dijon)
1 Tbs Bourbon (Jack Daniels)
1 Tbs Veg Oil
1 Tbs Parprika
1 Tbs Onion Powder
2 Tsp Coarse Salt - Kosher or Sea Salt
Do the rub the night before

Maple Bourbon Mop
1/4 cup Pure Maple Syrup
1/4 cup Bourbon (Jack Daniels)
1/4 cup cider vinegar
3 Tbs Veg Oil
2 Tsp Dijon Mustard

I start mopping after about an hour in the smoker. (Just let it drip on, don't actually MOP it or it will wash the paste off)

Maple Bourbon Glaze
3/4 cup Pure Maple Syrup
1/4 cup Bourbon (Jack Daniels)
3 Tbs Dijon
2 Tbs Unsalted Butter

You brush this on the ham during last hour the ham is on the smoker.
Run smoker temp between 225` and 250`. Took the ham to 160` internal temp


Actually I have changed this a lil bit.. I don't use a mop.. I just put the mop sauce in a water bottle and poke a little hole in the top and just squirt it on... I do the same thing for the glaze as this doesn't wipe anything off

Thanks, Jck!  I'm gonna try it!  Question.....so your "paste" is the rub you refer to?  You put it on the night before and, I assume, wrap her up in plastic?

Yes Rich.. the paste is the rub and it goes on the night before... No I don't wrap it... put it in a foil pan and cover with foil... you don't have to use JD.. you can get a cheaper bourbon if you like...
