We needed a picnic lunch yesterday for shrooming and I happen to have some ham on hand. Put two slices, about 1/2 in. thick in the CS to smoke while waiting for the fog to lift. I'd say they were in there about 2 hours. Just beginning to dry a bit, but juicy on the inside. Was at 175.

Cooled them a bit and chunked them for the food processor. Minced fine and added a couple of TBS. jalepeno jelly, a tbs. spicy brown mustard, a tsp. worcestershire, a tsp. minced garlic, and a thick slice of onion. Threw in a dill pickle. Whirled that around until everything meshed, and bound with mayo, a TBS. at a time.

Spread on homemade, buttered rye. Folks! This ain't no Underwood Deviled Ham! Turned out great! Razzer

This spread would make great canapes, great deviled eggs if ya add the yolks, and can be piped to stuff things with, like small cream puffs, cherry tomatoes, giant olives, etc.

Andi,
You seem to be a recipe machine. Is there a limit to what you will or won't "toss into" a dish to see what you come up with? You also sound like your other eaters are very adventurous. My three kids 5-8 have a bit of a struggle if that first bite isn't good. They will try anything but they may not eat it again! Keep those mouth watering ideas flowing, it will probably take us a year just to try 1/2 of your posts!
Thanks, Retsoon! I actually dream recipes. It's a curse, I know, but they always seem to work out! Not always though, the ham spread was made using some failed jalepeno jelly! LOL! Leave out the jalepeno jelly, and I bet your kids would love this one.

You can also take that very same spread and add bread crumbs to it until you can make firm balls, and deep-fry it! I do that with leftover salmon salad all the time. Sometimes I hide a piece of pickle in the balls. Serve the ham balls dipped in a berry catsup. Killer Munchies! Razzer
