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!
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.
