Ingredients
- 8-14 lbs. Sam’s choice spiral cut honey cured double glaze ham (do not use spice mix it comes with)
- 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cup apricot jam
- 3 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice (freshly squeezed)
Directions
- Set smoker to 300°F.
- Take ham out of its packaging, transfer to an aluminum pan, and pat dry.
- Lightly sprinkle the Pit Boss Texas BBQ Rub all over the ham, then place in smoker and let cook for 2 to 2 ½ hrs. or until internal temperature reaches above 150°F.
- Halfway through the ham’s cook time, make the glaze. In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, apricot jam, dijon mustard, and orange juice.
- When there is less than 1 hour left, baste the ham with the glaze, coating heavily. Try to get in between the cuts without tearing the meat, and return to the smoker.
- Let the ham rest before cutting into it, then enjoy!

Recipe NoteWhen cooking with ham, keep a wire rack in the pan to help with cleaning and to give a more exposed area for the heat and smoke to penetrate.
The best way to step your ham game up is to give it a great glaze. Try this tip: once you stick your ham in your smoker, brush your ham with the glaze every 20 minutes until it is done cooking.
