Bored, did a ham.

[DocSteve]

Got bored today, threw a ham in the smoker. Nothing special.
Broken down for freezing most of it. Cubed some for a burnt end experiment along w/ the belly burnt ends still on.

 

[DocSteve]

Burnt ends as well.

looks good, how did the burnt ends taste?

I never had any luck freezing ham. Use food saver. Texture thing. OK for beans or such.

Perfection. Nice smoke!

DS, Looks delicious!

Ends came out great. As far as freezing ham, ya I vacuum pack too. Seems okay. Mostly use for soups so maybe I'm missing true texture/taste test. I'm happy w/ it.
My problem is I live alone, dont know anyone good enough to share food w/. I cook up small batches but sometimes a small batch is a 7 pd ham, lol.

Looks great . Never had any off issues freezing a vac packed ham . Doc , have you ever tried pulled ham ? Take it to 205 or so and pull it . Makes a great sandwich .
Nice job on that !

 

[DocSteve]

Haven't tried pulled, sounds good. Have 2 more in the freezer to do.

Not sure if it works with store bought . Might be to dry . I used cured pork butt . Don't want to lead you in the wrong direction .
