I purchased two boneless hams from a local pork producer. They are about 14lbs apiece. I have them brining in smokin' Okies brine (24 hours)and plan on rinsing them and putting them in my Cookshack 55 tonight. I am concerned that if I cook them like a butt or shoulder (225* for 15-18 hours)that they may dry out. I can't find much information on fresh hams. should I : inject them..(with what)? mop them...(with what)? foil...(obviously with foil)? Cook at a higher temp for less time? Finish in the oven...?
I'm confused and don't want to ruin my daughters second birhtday party. (I'll buy a cake and she'll be fine). Help me out.
