Pork loin and fresh ham

[bekellog81]

Smoking a few pork loins and a fresh ham today!! The morning started out nice 30 degrees and still. Today will be an interesting experiment, I have two pieces of loin fresh from my buddys farm and half a loin that my 87 yr old grandpa bought from the store (hormell brand) that he insisted I smoke for him
I am interested to taste the difference. Q view to follow

Loin was awesome!!  The ham I tried to pull like a shoulder cooked low and slow to 200 it was real tender but kinda dry.  I know ham is way different than shoulder and I did not inject it, but wondering if anyone has some ideas to make it more moist??? I have 5 more in the freezer.

Thanks
