Prepping Directions
- Using a sharp knife, score the fat on top of the ham on a diagonal into squares. This helps the seasonings penetrate the meat and allows extra smoke into the meat.
- Coat all sides with olive oil.
- Season all sides with Char-Griller Grills Creole, Sweet & Spicy and Sazon Seasonings to taste
- It’s now ready for the smoker!
Smoking Directions
- Clean out the Char-Griller Smokin’ Champ 1733 smoker and insert the Char-Griller Grills Drip Pan filled with water to the top into the main cooking area under the grill grates in the ash pan area.
- Using the Char-Griller Grills Charcoal Chimney fire up a full chimney of lump charcoal to 250°-300°.
- Release the lump charcoal on top a mesquite smoking log. Allow the smoker to thoroughly warm up, about 20 minutes.
- Place the ham in the smoker over the drip pan.
- Check in on the ham and side firebox every 60 minutes. Rotate the ham for an even smoke and also add lump charcoal/Smoking wood as needed.
- Insert the Char-Griller Grills Remote Thermometer to monitor the internal temperature.
- Smoke ham to internal temperature 135° then glaze all sides of the ham with your favorite glaze.
- Smoke the glazed ham to internal temperature 140°.
- Remove the ham from the smoker and allow it to rest for 30 minutes.
- Slice and enjoy!
