Hi all! Has anyone smoked a ham on a pellet smoker? I attempted my first smoke on my new camp chef pellet smoker yesterday and it was a bust. My ham looked great but was so dry. Also, the ham like texture wasent there...it was more like a dried out pork butt. I had it in a brine for 4 days and used the proper amount of sodium nitrate but after the cook I cut into it and it wasent pink all the way through...the center was white like a pork butt as well. It was a 9lb bone in ham. Not sure what went wrong. I was wondering if the pellet smoker dried it out because of the fan or not?...I took the ham off a 145 and let it rest for 30 min.
