What is this Omak Attack injection of which you speak?

I am doing a double smoke ham for the first time on Sunday.
Trying to find an injection that makes sense.

That's looking great. I used his injection cure. Turned out great. Will definitely use it again

I'll be doing turkey this way soon...

Watson that's a curing injection . Don't use that on a already cured ham . Just making sure you understand that .

I think you seen my hams I cured using his injection. If not they turned out great.

I'm cutting up the CB I made right now. After the turkeys, next sale on butts, I want to make some butt ham. I love ham! And it will be great to pack around in the woods during turkey season.

Well got late . Took off at 1:00 . I'm not sure if I caused this thing to stall , but I'm thinkin I did .
Went and checked temp about 10:30 with instant read , was at 152 . Back in the house , and I saw I T was falling .
20 minutes ,, still falling . Was at 152 now I'm down to 143 . Dave , I remember you talking about evaporation , so I shut the top vent down some . Cab temp 190 , I T came back to 148 , but it took awhile . Had to pull it ,,, I ran out of beer .
Fresh from the smoker


Rested over night , then I cut in half to slice plus I wanted to make sure the cure did it's job .

Looks like alot of fat , but after the slice it's all good


Dave , I can't thank you enough for teaching me to understand how to do this .
This comes out fantastic . Great flavor , moist . So good .

Cool.... Glad you like the flavor... I sure prefer the flavor and moistness over brine/curing...
