How To Cure and Smoke Ham on WSM | Pineapple/Cherry Holiday Glaze

[@greenboyatgafarms2250]

I'm trying this for Christmas

[@ozzshark7]

T-roy, I tried your recipe and it was amazing! My whole family loved it. My 2yo could not get enough. I couldn't find the pineapple preserves, so I got apricot preserves and a can of apricots for the juice. Thanks again for an amazing recipe.

[@jimmyv6310]

Appreciate this video. I use to cure and smoke 25+ years ago and just started up again with my brand new 22.5" smokey mountain. I found a couple of my old recipes, but forgot about boiling the water and mixing everything in together first so it dissolves completely. DUH... Thanks T-ROY. and cheers to yah!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey Jimmy, glad I could help you remember some of the finer details. And congrats on the new WSM!!! I've had mine for 5 yrs and still love it! Cheers brother!

[@scottgraves565]

I love looking a recipes for an idea. I may not have every ingredient but can substitute here and there and get a general idea. I've got to say I didn't follow your recipe to the T but the back bone of it is phenomenal. Pineapple glaze was sooo good. I will absolutely be doing this again. Used a 10.5 lbs. picnic roast, the candied crust melted sweet goodness in my mouth and it was raved by all who shared my table today.

[@Tommy_boy007]

Thank you T-Roy. I purchased a SWM 2 years ago. You have taught me so much. I’m smoking a ham this way for thanksgiving so I don’t have to eat my broth in-laws dry Turkey. UPDATE: It came out dry. Not sure why.

[@mattl6300]

I made this ham for Christmas, it was awesome. I followed T-Roy's recipe for the cure & glaze, then I smoked it at 250 deg on my offset smoker with peach wood to about 165 deg internal glazing it about 4 times in the last hour or the cook. Great recipe, Thanks T-Roy.

[@bocivus328]

T- to the Roy! I made this today for Christmas dinner. It was AWESOME! it took my 8 pounder a bit longer to get to 165° though but I did it on the Weber Kettle. My wife and her friend loved it! Thanks for posting this and Merry Christmas, homie!

[@stenny1970]

T-ROY COOKS - Another awesome video! You got skills... :)

[@RivetGardener]

You sure are right in that is far better than anything you can buy. Wow, that looked delicious! I know that curing/brining process took a bit but does yield results! You all had a feast!

[@BrianDowd]

Amazing. I made 10lb ham today amd followed you video. Everyone at our Friendsgiving enjoyed it. Thanks!

[@brianwoodfill9663]

you and i think the same smoking in maple chips and or apple amd cherry i always enjoy you content. I feel like we do the same style of cooking except i drink more when i cook 10-FO BROTHA!!!

[@jaguar5198]

Now that is a very good looking ham T-Roy. I really liked the grill marks on there too. And of course, the Cola mix comes in handy for a nice glaze. Again, keep it up buddy!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Yeah man, gotta have me some cola on my ham. Grill marks were not expected, but me likey!!! LOL Merry Christmas Damien!!! Cheers bro!!!

[@RaleighSmoke]

That beard is getting strong! Glad to see you back on the ol’ WSM. Great looking ham, Troy! Nice looking glaze as well. Merry Christmas!! 🎄

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks, the beard is healthy and I'm loving it!!! Gonna see how long I can grow it!!! LOL Yeah man, felt great firing up the WSM again. I been neglecting her and she can still smoke like nobody's bidness!!! LOL Merry Christmas brother!!!

[@scott5310]

I'm out your way quite often for work and love picking up some tips from the region that does it best. Great videos, keep em comin

[@justpassinthrough7]

I harvested 4 wild hogs in FL last month, definitely give this a try!

[@captaindj9790]

I got 5 Hams I gotta do for thanksgiving alone Will be the first time on the SMW I can’t wait

[@benhall1788]

I improvised a similar brine for my Thanksgiving turkey with the allspice, clove, peppercorns, and a few other ingredients and it turned out GREAT

[@TROYCOOKS]

I bet it did turn out great Ben. This ham was truly amazing!!! Thanks for watching!

[@jf907079]

[@TROYCOOKS]

[@BanditosofBacon]

That cure and ham looks delicious, definitely going to have to do this with the boys. Always enjoy your videos and cooks brother.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Go for it bro, it's super easy and tastes so much better than what you'd get from the local grocery!!! As you could see in the video, it was super juicy and very tender and flavorful. Thanks for watching!

[@nathanleigh1701]

God Bless you Troy! Hahaha! I've been wanting an easy way to turn a fresh hunk of pork into a smoked ham for the longest time! Thanks!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Glad I could help you out!!! This was my first cured ham and it totally rocked! Hope you give it a shot! God Bless you and Merry Christmas to you and the family!!!

[@ChrisMcDowellDIY]

Never thought about smoking a ham. Sounds good. Gotta be even better than buying one from the dang Honey Baked Ham store. Good stuff Troy!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey Chris, I must say, this ham was better than the Honey Baked Ham store in my opinion. Hope you give it a try!!! Thanks for watching!!!

[@papo0810]

Merry Christmas T-Roy!You brought me great Beef Jerky during this year.

[@001SapoBBQ]

Awesome 👍 Thanks 🇺🇸

[@charliessmokinbbq6736]

Nice ham, man that looks so good, you made me very hungry

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks, the ham turned out fantastic!! It was so much better than that ham you get already cured and smoked from the local grocery. I appreciate you watching Charlie!! Keep that smoke rollin' bro!!!

[@progers5019]

Turned out beautiful Troy. That brine must have really put some flavor in the meat. The glaze also sounded delish. I'm sittin here mid afternoon watching this while hungry. I wanted to try a piece of that ham so bad. I think I love to carve a baked ham more than anything. (lot of sampling goin on). Great job T-Roy. Merry Christmas to you, Karen, and family.

[@TROYCOOKS]

I'm with ya Phil. The ham and glaze were out of this world brother!!! Merry Christmas to you and the family also!!!

[@gary2960]

Great looking ham troy gonna be some fine eating and then make some killer beans Merry Christmas my friend!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey Gary, this ham was amazing and the beans totally rocked. I appreciate you watching! Merry Christmas to you as well.

[@BabyBackManiac]

That's looks so great. Like I told you, I've always wanted to try this. You made it look a lot easier than I thought it would be. Thanks for the info.

[@TROYCOOKS]

You really need to give it a try Justin. I swear brother, this was the best ham I've ever had. Of course, the glaze helped, but curing it was super easy!!!!

[@BabyBackManiac]

yep. I think I will. May even do a video about it in the spring if you don't mind (I know you don't mind...lol. Not sure why I even said that.)

[@MaicSalazarDiagnostics]

T-Roy you rock! That look gooooodddd!!

[@ronaldmileur9321]

Maic Salazar Diagnostics

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks Maic!!! I appreciate you watching brother!

[@mikecha1957]

This looks really good T-Roy...I will save this one for sure..

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

Hey brother that ham looked great! I bet it was just tender and juicy! Great video!

[@ChristysCookingLifestyle]

I've never cured a ham, you made it seem so easy. It looked so delicious, perfect color too. Hope y'all have a Merry Christmas🌲Thanks for sharing😃

[@TROYCOOKS]

You should give it a try sometime Christy!! This was my 1st time curing a ham also and it turned out so much better than the store bought hams. Also, that glaze I whipped up totally rocked the house down!!! That was some mighty fine eating!!! Merry Christmas to you and your family also!!

[@Darthbelal]

Just be cautious with the Prague powder #1, you're playing with fire when you start using sodium nitrites......

[@EverydayBBQ]

Oh man my daughter would love that Ham! Awesome recipe my friend! I was also unaware of the different curing salts (#1 and #2) so that's something I must remember if I give this a whirl! God Bless and Merry Christmas to you and yours, T-Roy!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Glad you enjoyed the video. I wasn't aware of the differences in the curing salts either which is why I mentioned that in the video. I'm just trying to help you guys out by sharing what I know. God Bless and Merry Christmas to you and your family also!!! Keep that smoke rollin' brother!!! Cheers

[@ozzshark7]

Looks amazing. I've been thinking of doing my own ham! Definitely gonna give this a whirl!

[@5starchris466]

Beautiful. That is a work of art sir.

[@TROYCOOKS]

[@alanscott156]

Thanks for the awesome video, it's great content/how-to. You should add your smoking temp, times etc. to the description.

[@SmokeyGoodness]

1:40 in the morning here... I'll have to settle for a ham sammy right now but I'd be happy to have a big ol' slice of that ham!

[@TROYCOOKS]

I hear ya Dan. That ham was out of this world good brother!!!

[@eds8178]

Tried this recipe on a fresh ham off the whole hog we purchased and processed. The ham was 17 pounds and the flavor off the WSM was amazing - thank you! Here is my next project. What is the best video to smoke the bone-in pork loin roast in my WSM?.

[@BigWBBQ]

Wowzer that is one good looking ham! Nice work, T-Roy! Hope you have a great Christmas!

Happy holidays T-roy

[@TheFlatlander440]

Hey T-Roy, that ham looked awesome and the glaze recipe rocks! For Christmas I'm smoking a small 3 lb spiral cut ham (since I Iive alone) on the Slow and Sear. I'll be borrowing your glaze recipe for the ham and not use the crappy one in the package. This past week the high temp outside was about 10 F and down to -20 F at night so I hope the Weber Kettle is up to the task, lol. Have a great week and I'm sure I'll catch with you on Thursday Chat. If not, Merry Christmas and Cheers to ya T-Roy! Say hey to Karen for me. Thanks for sharing.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey William, I'm sure you will really enjoy that glaze brother. It was a huge hit here at my house! Merry Christmas to you as well. Cheers bro!!!

[@jeffreylunham9881]

That looks amazing. I can almost taste it. I need a wsm after watching this. My pit barrel cooker can't achieve this

[@MrScottcollier]

I do loves me some ham, more so than turkey. Excellent cook TRoy and awesome rocking of the beard. :)

[@TROYCOOKS]

I appreciate that Scott!!! I prefer ham over turkey also!

[@carlosarango7210]

Tip. I speeded up the process using a marinade syringe. Only 2 days in the brine and came out perfect!

[@TheWolfePit]

Beautiful!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks Larry, it was some fine eating brother!!! And that glaze I whipped up totally rocked!!! Merry Christmas to you and the family! Cheers brother!

[@john1josjohn1jos]

[@jayoh6oberdalhoff50]

Good video, I've been wondering about doing this and how to go about it!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Go for it Jay! It's super easy to do and tastes fantastic!!!

[@markbritton844]

Looks perfect!!!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks very much Mark!!! This ham rocked brother!!!

[@gilberthardy8002]

#1 is for wet and dry curing but for meat that will be smoked or eating soon or freezer for a while # 2 is for longer dry curing sausages that grow mold on them like salami that is hun and dried at controlled temps

[@USA__2023]

I knew I'd see a comment like this. Everyone that dry cures bacon knows better. LOL. I'm glad I read for weeks before I started curing meat. Lots of mis-info out there.

[@oren5230]

Cheers. even your ham makes a good sammich

[@TROYCOOKS]

Yeah buddy!!!! It was some fine eating for sure! I appreciate you watching Oren! Cheers
