A ham, CSR's and wings with Qview!

[billbo]

It has been a while since I have been able to fire up the drum. I have been itchy to have a good smoke. This is the first big smoke in the drum since I added the Weber lid mod.

I brined up 60 chicken wings in the morning yesterday. I just used water & kosher salt. I wanted it to be a simple brine, I wasn't trying to add any flavor.



Made up a new batch of rub. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...ad.php?t=77564



Rubbed up a 3.75lb fully cooked honey ham with EVOO an just a light coating of rub.



Also Had 4 slabs of CSR's. Rubbed them with EVOO & plenty of rub.



Same rub for the wings.



Fired up the drum with Kingsford Comp & Apple.



Ham after 1.5 hours, Ribs go on.



Ham done after 4.5 hours. Internal 160°



Wings and ribs come off.





The wings were absolutely fantastic. I did them for 2 hours at 245° or so. The ribs were a bit dry. I used the 2-2-1 method. I need to change that next time. It was my first attempt at CSR's so I was expecting something to go wrong. I am going to use the leftovers for beans so dryness will not matter.

Threw the ham in the fridge overnight and sliced it up today.



Packaged it up for freezing.



All is well. Beer is good and so are my New York Football Giants! Thanks for looking!

Looks like you did a great job. I've re-smoked a cooked ham a few times and they take on a nice flavor.

You definetaly have out done yourself this time and thats a load of smoke there. But you have some good smoking there. The ham does it get retain much of the smoke flavor?? Those rib I have never seen a slab of contry style ribs but if I do you can bet that I will be smoking them like crazy because we love the counrty style ribs. The family is hard to change from my grilled chicken wings but maybe if I smoke some I can change some of them but for me I love them and smoked them alot for me and the wife.

Everything looks great. I haven't smoked a ham yet, but it's still on my to do list.

Smoke them up some wings and they will want them that way from now on! The ham takes on a nice flavor, not too strong just a hint. Tasted great!

Everything looks great. Did you cure the ham first or did you take a product that was pre-cured?

It was a fully cooked ham already. Just took it to 160° and sliced it later.
