Ham Anyone?
« on: September 01, 2011, 01:49:17 am »
I put 4 pork roasts from the last pig we shot in brine to make hams a week ago Monday.  2 are shoulder roasts and then the 2 large hindquarter roasts.  I pulled the smaller hams out of the brine over the weekend and the larger ones came out today.  Then, they went in the smoker at 5pm.  I just checked them now at 10,



and they have just a few more degrees to go before we can call them done.  But, they look gooooood to me.  I'll know when I take them off and snitch a little.

Thanks guys, I ended up bringing the ham in the house and putting it in the oven to get the internal temp up to where I wanted.  I snitched a piece off the smaller ham which had been soaked in water overnight and it was wonderful.  Then I snitched a piece off the larger ham which had only been rinsed before smoking and it was a little salty.

This morning I took them back out of the refrigerator and cut into one of the larger hind quarter hams.  Looks good.



Then I had a piece for breakfast.



It's a little salty around the edges, but for the most part it is excellent.  Note to self, rinsing the hams overnight before smoking is worth the wait.

LOL, you guys crack me up.  Actually I offerred this pig to a friend who's out of work.  He already took all the ground pork and half the chops.  He'll come over in the next couple days and take as much of the ham as he wants.
