Smoking a smoked ham?
-

Ok. An Easter update.
Double smoked this ham. This was really, really good. Both were shanks. Trimmed excess fat off on one to see if it would take more smoke.( Didn’t notice any significant difference between the two after smoking)… Used pure maple syrup and brown sugar for glaze. (one cup of each whisked together). Basted several times during the smoke. Used 50/50 mix of cherry & hickory pellets for the smoke using the A-Maze-N pellet tube. Some pics to follow…
Guess it was good:winking_face:

PapaSop I’ve been looking forward to hearing how everything turned out since your initial post. That looks amazing! Pork is truly magical. I made ribs today using the Pa’s Black Bull seasoning as a marinade. I’m not sure I’ve had better results. I used the same marinade for a flat iron steak using a reverse sear method while blackening in a hot skillet…so good

Joe Hell and PapaSop We need to keep spreading the word about Pa’s Black Bull…or maybe we won’t and just keep it to ourselves?!
That ham looks awesome and I have GOT to stop looking at pictures of meat first thing in the morning, it is driving my hunger! An interesting experiment with the trimming/not trimming, I love that people try things here and then share! Pap, not sure if you follow us on Instagram and other social media but these pictures will be making an appearance on there!

Joe Hell The particle size is the biggest thing. The Soluble is designed to suspend in water and go through an injector without clogging any plungers or needles up. Also, if I remember correctly the regular marinade might caramelize just a tiny bit better, but I could be misremembering things there.

PapaSop It was great on the steak. I’ve never had the flat iron cut before. I was really surprised how tender it was. After I pulled the meat from the smoker I was concerned that I may have overcooked it as it felt a bit firm. I coated it in a blackening seasoning and seared it with smoking hot butter until I got a decent crust and then let it rest for a few minutes. It was perfect.

Just thinking about the social media thing. I do follow your Facebook page. ( I think my family took a collective gasp when I finally signed into that). I’m still trying to figure out how the pound symbol(#) ended up being a hashtag!? :man_shrugging:

PapaSop Other than the Walton’s and Meatgistics accounts I do very little on social media so I am with you on that. It can be helpful though from time to time. Kids today get confused if the listen to an auto directory and it tells them to hit the extension and then the pound sign, they have no idea what to do!

Jonathon I’m in the same boat. I quit facebook years ago…I don’t regret it one bit. People that I want to connect with know my phone number. I don’t need to share my life with people from high school I didn’t really like in the first place. lol. The folks here at Meatgistics share a common love of meat. I dig that.

Totally agree with you both. The keyboard has become a powerful voice these days. I will check Pinterest from time to time if I’m looking for recipe ideas, but…This website has become my goto for the knowledge everyone has here. Ask a question, get a quick and honest answer with no guessing and no BS…(wellll, maybe a little
). Want to get frustrated?? Google a question and click on a forum:face_screaming_in_fear: -
PapaSop My biggest issue with some other forums is that it seems as if people delight in being mean and enforcing rules “like dont start a new post unless you have exhaustively searched the board” Now, still being a relatively small (but constantly growing) community we may have an advantage with that but being rude isn’t gonna be something we allow here. As long as it is an honest question this board will always strive to answer it!

Jonathon I was a founding member/moderator on a very, very large forum. It was terrible. Lol. You almost had to police it due to so many jerks. Don’t dare ask a question before searching on your own or face the wrath of dozens of angry members. Brand loyalty would spark instant arguments.

Jonathon I’m on a Facebook group dedicated to smoking with 55K members. That is a nice community. People ask the same question over and over again and every question gets an honest answer. It’s so nice when you find groups like this. I am new here and think I will learn a lot. Thank you.
