GRILLED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat grill to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix brown sugar and mustard together in a bowl until a paste forms.
• Place ham on a large piece of aluminum foil. Spread brown sugar paste over entire ham. Wrap foil securely around ham, sealing all of the edges together. Place wrapped ham in a disposable pan.
• Grill ham on the preheated grill until heated through, about 2 1/2 hours. Remove ham from grill and let rest 30 minutes before slicing.

HONEY-GLAZED SMOKED HAM

Steps:

• Gather the dry rub ingredients and ham.
• The night before you smoke the ham, mix together the pepper, paprika, sugar, salt, dry mustard, and cayenne in a small bowl.
• Rub the spice mixture over the surface of the ham.
• Wrap the ham in aluminum foil and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight to soak up all the flavors.
• The next morning, remove the ham from the refrigerator and let it sit for 1 hour.
• Gather the basting sauce ingredients and ham.
• Prepare the smoker. You will be smoking at about 210 F/100 C for 5 to 6 hours, or until the ham reaches 140 F . (If you use a digital meat thermometer you can set the temperature to 140 F, and you'll be notified once the ham reaches the desired temperature.)
• In a saucepan, mix together the chicken stock, pineapple juice, vegetable oil, dry mustard, and ground cloves. Warm basting sauce over medium heat until completely mixed.
• Score the ham with a sharp knife, scoring in a diamond pattern about 1/4-inch deep.
• Tent the scored ham with foil to prevent it from drying out, and place ham in the smoker.
• Baste the ham with the sauce once every hour, recovering the ham with the foil.
• Gather the glaze ingredients.
• Mix together the honey, pineapple juice, dry mustard, and a pinch of ground cloves to form the glaze.
• Brush the ham generously with the glaze a couple of times during the last hour of smoking, re-covering with the foil to prevent drying out. Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy.

GRILLED MOLASSES AND RUM-GLAZED FRESH HAM

Steps:

• Brine ham:
• Bring all brining ingredients except ham to a boil in a deep 8- to 9-quart pot (such as a pasta pot), stirring occasionally until sugar and salt are dissolved. Remove from heat and add ham. (Brine should cover ham; if not, make more brine.) Cool mixture 30 minutes, then chill, covered, turning ham once or twice, at least 1 day and up to 2.
• Prepare grill for cooking using enough hardwood charcoal to fill a charcoal chimney or a shoe box. When coals are ready, push them to one side of grill, leaving about two thirds of grill without coals. Put a drip pan opposite coals.
• Make spice rub and cook ham:
• Finely grind all spice-rub ingredients together in an electric coffee/spice grinder.
• Drain ham and pat dry. Rub ground spices all over ham.
• Place ham on grill rack, fatty side up, over drip pan. Cover grill, leaving cover vents one fourth open and bottom vents fully open, and cook ham, adding a large handful of charcoal every 30 minutes. After 1 hour, turn ham around so other side faces coals and continue to cook until a meat thermometer inserted near but not touching bone registers 155°F, 1 to 2 hours more.
• Make glaze while ham is grilling:
• Heat glaze ingredients over moderate heat, stirring, until butter is melted.
• During last 30 minutes of grilling, brush ham with glaze several times, letting excess fall into drip pan.
• Serve ham:
• Transfer cooked ham to a platter and cover loosely with foil. Let ham stand 30 minutes to 1 hour before carving. Serve with pan drippings (skimmed of fat).
