I can't wait to see the results. It should have a great concentrated flavor.

That it should! Hopefully it wasn't a strong wood and it won't over power the senses when served

You may have misunderstood what I was referring to. The long period of smoking and air drying will concentrate the ham-like flavor of the meat. I'm guessing he may have applied 3 hours of smoke during each day.

Didn't misunderstand. Just added to it not knowing if he used 3 hours or 8 hours of smoke a day. Was it Mesquite or Hickory or was it Apple or Maple makes for different variables and smoke profiles. That are unknown at this time.

I take it you used a fresh ham and brined it. What did you use for a brine? I have some fresh ham and would like to try this. I love the triple smoked bacon.

Waiting for a report.
My bacon, hams and ham shanks all get cold smoke. Can't lower myself to buy precooked hams in the stores( paying top dollar for leftovers). Triple smoke bacon is like eating Scooby snacks and a ham shank rendering all the juices and smoke into a pot of beans is fantastic.
I will smoke 1-2 hrs with hickory then hit it with pecan, pecan and more pecan. My smoking season starts in 3 weeks.
