Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ham

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, about 1/4 inch deep.

  2. 2

    Make the Glaze

    In a bowl, combine brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground black pepper, ground cloves, apple cider vinegar, and water. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Smoke the Ham

    Place the ham in the smoker, and brush with the glaze. Smoke for about 4 to 6 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C).

  4. 4

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the ham from the smoker and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. Serve hand-carved to order.
