Smoke it in one of those disposable aluminum pans and trow a glaze the last 20 minutes you will be in love.
 
LOL---It wouldn't hurt a bit in my book, but I love Ham as smoky as I can get it.

Maybe go with something mild, like Apple.

Funny you should say this, I just picked up a pack of applewood chunks yesterday.  :)  Thanks for the advice!  Really looking forward to smoking.

Sounds like a good plan, I agree with Smokin Al, I would love to see the Q-view on it.

I will post a pic when it's done.  :) 

Just wanted to ask another question while I'm here.  What do you guys prefer to use for rub (if any)?  I found a lot of people saying regular mustard with a dry rub over it, but haven't been able to find an answer on a good rub to use.
 
Should I apply this syrup and brown sugar "rub" before I start smoking, or towards the end?


I like to add some pineapple juice & slices to the mix, but I only put it on for about the last hour.

I pin the slices around the top half with toothpicks. Sometimes stick some cloves in too.

I think I will pass on the pineapple this time. :)

So far I've got:
Smoke at 225ish for 3 hours or so
Apple wood chunks
Brush on a maple syrup/brown sugar mixture an hour from finish
Take pics!

Anything I'm missing? Am I over analyzing things??? LOL

Not much on maple syrup, i do just like ev1 else but use cane syrup or molasses w/ the brown sugar.

Melt 1  stick butter, add 1 cup crushed pecans and cook on med heat till pecans darken a bit,

add 1 cup syrup & 1/2 cup brown sugar. Stir over low heat till sugar is dissolved.

  Score ham b4 smoking . smoke ham over foil pan to catch any juices, 1 hour b4 ready  pour the glaze over the ham. smoke for last hour.

   Excess glaze will fall into the pan w/ the juices , Stir the juice and glaze together and serve  over the ham slices.
 
EMAN   that glaze sounds quite tasty!     i believe it will be on my ham come Thursday
