📝 Ingredients

  • 10 lb city ham ((precooked, bone-in, spiral-sliced))
  • 2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • Dry rub ((optional, see recipe below))
  • Wood chunks/pellets ((apple, cherry or other sweet fruit wood))
  • Sliced pineapple ((optional, for grilling))
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp chili powder
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 4 Tbsp butter
  • 2 Tbsp Dijon mustard

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Prep the Ham: Let the ham sit at room temperature for 30-60 minutes. Coat lightly with Dijon mustard and sprinkle with dry rub (if using). Insert a probe thermometer into the thickest part.
  2. 2Smoke the Ham: Set your smoker to 250°F with indirect heat and a water drip pan in place. Add wood chunks or pellets for smoke. Smoke the ham for 3 hours, or until it reaches 130°F internal temperature.
  3. 3Make the Glaze: While the ham is in the smoker, combine all glaze ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until thickened slightly.
  4. 4Glaze & Finish: Transfer the ham to a cast-iron skillet or disposable aluminum pan. Brush with glaze, then return to the smoker. Glaze every 15-20 minutes until the ham reaches 140°F internal temperature.
  5. 5Rest & Serve: Rest the ham (covered) for 30 minutes. While resting, grill pineapple slices (optional). Carve the ham and serve with grilled pineapple and a drizzle of glaze.
