Time to update this with a prequel post.

One of my Physical Terrorist's son went wild boar hunting, and shot one. We were talking about it and I said hey have him bring over a ham and I can cure it for him.  They brought over two hams and also a couple of packages of what he called bacon. Ended up being the flap of meat between the ribcage and the ham. No Problem I can cure it just like bacon. (Been done with the same cut of meat off deer, so I know it works done it before) The Bacon and one of the Hams went into the Bradley's this morning at 7:30.

The Ham started out looking like this

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/090612103914.jpg)

Took all the bones out and stuffed it into a ham net.

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/090612105415.jpg)

Mixed up a batch of injection/brine

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/090612105425.jpg)

Weighed said little ball of ham. Hard to see but it is 5:11.7 pounds (5 pounds 11.7 ounces)

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/090612105535.jpg) (http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/090612105520.jpg)

Did a little math and figured out the amount then injected the Ham

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/090612112003.jpg)

Put the lid on the bucket and into the fridge to rest for a week after making sure the Ham was kept submerged with a plastic cup

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/090612112535.jpg)

Can't seem to find any pictures of the bacon I will get some pictures during the smoking slicing part

Just as the Smoke stopped rolling

Just in case someone stumbles across this thread.

After the Smoke had rolled for 8 hours (Whiskey Oak) and I had gotten a couple hours of sleep.

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/091612103725.jpg)

Here she is all done. I guess it doesn't matter what size the ham is 28 pounds or 6 pounds it still takes 36 hours in the Bradley to finish the ham to 153 degrees.

That looks awesome! You'll have to let us know how it tastes and if your son liked it.

Thanks for sharing!
