Thanks to BGETeamGreen Member Chris Sussman aka The_BBQ_Buddha for this recipe.
Well, it is that time of year again and you are here looking for the perfect centerpiece for your holiday meal. I am happy to report you landed in the right spot. Double smoking a ham is just a fancy way to describe warming up your pre-cooked ham in a smoker to add a kiss of additional smoke before serving. Throw in a thick maple bourbon glaze and this will be your go-to holiday meal from now on. Now sit back, grab a glass of your favorite chardonnay, and enjoy this post for Double Smoked Maple Bourbon Glazed Ham on the Big Green Egg.
Ingredients
- 1 bone-in half spiral ham
- 3 cups apple juice
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 2 tbsp yellow mustard
- BBQ rub
Instructions
Set the EGG for indirect cooking with the convEGGtor at 275°F with chunks of hickory wood.
Cover the ham in yellow mustard and add the BBQ rub. Put the apple juice and onion in a roasting pan then place the ham in a roasting rack in the roasting pan. Cook uncovered for 2 hours. Cover with foil and cook another hour. Uncover the ham, glaze, and cook for 30 minutes until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°.
Remove the ham from the EGG and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice and serve.
Glaze Ingredients
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
