Mighty Good looking hames ya got there Dave.

I knew a gal that had hams that looked that good, her name was Sal. She made some might fine bacon too. Miss that ol' gal Sal-but I'm glad that I still don't have to feed her at 6:00 in the morning before catching the bus for school!

Very nice! Looks like you were cold smoking. What temperature did you smoke it at?

I did a couple hams this weekend but was cooking them to eat. Took about 14 hours at 225* to get them to 175* internal.

How did your deer hams turn out?

I put them in the smoker with no smoke at 120 deg for 8 hours with dampers wide open,then at 140 with smoke for 8 hours dampers half open,then at 165 with smoke for 8 hours dampers half open until internal temp hits 155 deg.This is a fully cooked ham.

dacdots thanks for explaining your process to me. I have not cooked ham like that and knew that you would have pulled pork cooking them that long the way I do it. I must repeat "Those hams sure look good!"
