Roll Eyes Hope this one doesn't make you roll your eyes. Tried to find discussion on ham sandwichs in the archives to no avail so here goes. A local packer made available to us 4 cases of "tavern hams" at a steal. They are a lot like cure 81 hams. So I bought em. Now what to do with them. First I plan on double smoking them probably using hickory or mesquete. There should be little shrink. I am thinking a double smoked ham and cheese sandwich might be a welcome change. I bought a gallon of Beaver brand hot sweet mustard just to offer an alternative. Made with honey, mustard and horseradish. It seems like there should be other ways to really dress this item up. Any suggestions on presentation and extras would sure be appreciated. Plan to introduce it at the Montana State BBQ Championship the first weekend in August. Keep stokin and smokin.

well this is truly an off the top of my head thing but think about it.
get whole wheat tortillas. the big ones.
get some swiss or baby swiss a good cheese that you like. slice it on the thin side.
slice your ham on the thin side also.
now lay out the tortilla and hit it with your mustard then layer your ham and cheese all across the surface. roll it up tight and slice on the bias bout 45 degrees or so. you could use it as an appetizer if you cater and it would make good finger food people could share while walking around.
hope it gave you and idea and i will think about it more while towing saturday since some of my gooder(as we say in the south) ideas hit me then.
neat question
may bounce it off peggy too if that's ok.

everynow and again i go a ham kick. absolutly love it, and have various ways to prepare. take the whole ham, cut out a big hole in the middle, fill it with brown sugar, honey, and pineapple(with juice). smoke it til the juice runs through out. mmmmmmm! serve it up as ham sammies, or dinners(with mac n cheese n veggies), or make some ham salad, or some of the worlds greatest ommletts(5egg). or sell by the whole ham, 0r by the pound. smoke em and freeze two pound per gallon ziplock, for later.
