Recipe by: BBQ Recipes
Soak about 4 wood chunks or several handfuls of wood chips in water;
drain. If using a canned ham, scrape off any gelatin. If using another type
of fully cooked ham, such as a bone-in shank, trim most of the fat, leaving
a 1/8" layer. Arrange low briquettes on each side of a rectangular metal
or foil drip pan. Pour in hot tap water to fill pan half full. Add soaked
wood chips to the fire. Oil hot grid to help prevent sticking. Place ham on
grid directly above drip pan. Grill ham, on a covered grill 20-30 minutes
per pound, until meat thermometer in thickest part registers 140 degrees F.
For best flavor, cook slowly over low coals, adding a few briquettes to
both sides of the fire every hour, or as necessary, to maintain a constant
temperature. Add more hickory chips every 20-30 minutes. MAPLE MUSTARD
SAUCE
Mix syrup and mustard in small bowl; set aside most of the syrup
mixture to serve as a sauce. brush ham with remaining mixture several times
during the last 45 minutes of cooking. let ham stand 10 minutes before
slicing. Serve with Maple-Mustard Sauce.
