Home Cured Smoked Ham. I show you how to make the Best Smoked Ham you will Ever try. Sure, you can skip the smoke, just roast it to an internal temperature of 135 F and you're good. Curing and smoking meats are great ways to not only add a ton of flavor, but preserve as well, as that was the initial use for these methods. Our wet cure is super easy to do and the biggest limitation will be how big of a piece you can make at once due to refrigerator size. We keep it cold so the possibility of the ham going bad is severely reduced. <br /><br />Recipe:<br />3 lb Pork Butt<br />1 tsp curing salt<br />1/2 cup pickling salt<br />1/2 cup sugar<br />1 tsp mustard seeds<br />1 tbs black peppercorns<br />1 tbs allspice berries<br /><br />Dissolve salts & Sugar in hot water, add cold water to bring to cool or room temperature. Add all other ingredients. I use a gallon freezer bag and a plastic container to hold it all together. Refrigerate for 5 days.<br />Rinse thoroughly and smoke for 2 hours. I used applewood chips and hickory briquets. You can also just bake in an oven. You're looking for an internal temp of 135 F. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks but ours never last that long.<br /><br />Some links you might find helpful:<br /><br />Pink Curing Salt: <a href="https://amzn.to/2M9me2J" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/2M9me2J</a><br />Allspice Berries: <a href="https://amzn.to/2Mq4cpJ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/2Mq4cpJ</a><br />Black Peppercorns: <a href="https://amzn.to/2MbgLIN" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/2MbgLIN</a><br />Yellow Mustard Seed: <a href="https://amzn.to/2Mq4nkT" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/2Mq4nkT</a><br />Pickling Salt: <a href="https://amzn.to/2OiSCgU" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/2OiSCgU</a><br />The Smoker I use: <a href="https://amzn.to/2M5ee3m" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/2M5ee3m</a><br />Stop Petting My Peeves t-shirt: <a href="https://amzn.to/2wgaORo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/2wgaORo</a><br /><br /><br />Want more City Steading?<br /><br />Join our Mailing List: <a href="http://city-steading.com/signup-for-our-mailing-list/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://city-steading.com/signup-for-our-mailing-list/</a><br />Website: <a href="http://www.city-steading.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.city-steading.com</a><br />City Steading Mead and More: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/CitySteadingyt" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/c/CitySteadingyt</a><br />City Steading Garden and Grow: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHxMV_CVlLNQhRBfPOrdh2A/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHxMV_CVlLNQhRBfPOrdh2A/</a><br />VIP Club: <a href="http://city-steading.com/vip-club/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://city-steading.com/vip-club/</a><br />Instagram: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/citysteading" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.instagram.com/citysteading</a><br />Brian's Instagram: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/brian_citysteading" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.instagram.com/brian_citysteading</a><br />...<br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLhcZG06BXY" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLhcZG06BXY</a>
