Jason, not sure I'm understanding what you are wanting to do. Are you wanting to smoke a ham that has already been cured or are you looking to cure a hog leg and then smoke it?  If it's the first, there are a number of threads on smoke cooking an already cured ham.  If your loking to dry cure one, times a running short unless you are planning on stich-pumping a leg and placing it in a brining cure for 5-7 days and then smoking it.

With Thanksgiving just 2 weeks away, there isn't time to cure a whole bone-in ham properly....unless you can find a very small one.
You could, however, cure a boneless ham, of a few cottage hams from the shoulder.
