Has anyone done a ham on the Big Green Egg with good results and a recipe to share?

Did a “double smoked” ham on my offset for a work Thanksgiving pot luck, bought two pre smoked, spiral cuts and threw them on the smoker 225-250 until they were @ 145 internal temp, glazing periodically along the way.

Used Chris Lilly’s Apricot glaze LINK, was a hit at the office:

I can’t remember off the top of my head, but 3-4 hours. Since your not getting into stall territory so it’s a quick (relatively speaking) ramp up to there. Could always start at little earlier and hold in the oven wrapped in foil at 150/low until it’s time to eat

O/T from the Ham question...but what do y'all do to get through the temperature stall on smoked porks? Had a boston butt over New Years I could not get to warm up.

Wait it out, will pick up again. That's why having a temp probe is so important.

Wrap it in butcher paper at about 160 degrees. That will help. And because it breathes it won't ruin your bark.

On the ham, I would think all you really need to do is get it to warm up. It's already cooked when you put it on the smoker. You would just want to be careful to not dry it out because you don't have all the fat of a pork butt.

Let it ride baw. Crack open another beer or 6 and let it do its thing, unless your time crunched then in that case wrap in foil

I done a couple one was spiral cut and some bone in
Found both to come out great, just went slow and low shooting for 140 internal if i remember right
Also injected the last one with "honey praline" and did a 1/2 cup bourbon and 1/2 cup glaze
I did drink the other 1/2 cup of bourbon...

The same thing that cools you off when you sweat—evaporation.
