Smoked Ham is one Christmas tradition that I love. It’s always served at our Christmas feast, and the left overs make for delicious Ham sandwiches days after the dinner. We even save the ham bones for New Years where it’s used to flavor a big pot of Turnip Greens and the Black Eyed Peas. If you’ve never had the pot liquor off a pot of Ham-bone-infused Turnip Greens then you ain’t living!!
Preheat Drum Smoker or any indirect BBQ smoker or grill to 275 degrees. Add chunks of cherry wood or hot coals for smoke flavor.
Remove the gam from packaging and place on a half size wire cooling rack.
Place ham on the pit and smoke for 2 hours.
In a small saucepan over medium heat add apple jelly. Cook the jelly until it turns into a liquid, stirring often. Add the raspberry chipotle sauce and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and keep warm.
Apply the glaze over the ham using a basting brush. Continue to cook for 30 minutes or until the glaze sets
Remove the ham from the smoker and rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
