Twofer Tuesday - New Year's Day Cook
« Reply #-1 on: January 02, 2013, 08:51:17 PM »
We had a hard time deciding what to cook for New Year's Day. We had a Picnic Ham I'd just smoked a couple days ago, and the samples we sliced were really good. But we'd also already bought a Rib Roast.  We finally decided, let's just cook both. New Year's did fall on a Twofer-Tuesday after all! ;)

Let's fire up the MAK. Start with the ham and add the rib roast later.


Both finished!


Time to slice...




I was way too full to attempt posting this cook last evening.  ::)

Thanks everyone! The meal was great. My wife & daughter made the sides: Mashed potatoes, glazed carrots & cauliflower with cheese sauce. I ate way too much!


What did you use to get the color on that ham?

If you mean the bark: First, the color you're seeing is mainly from that picnic ham being double smoked; I smoked it over the weekend after curing it, then it got smoke-roasted on the MAK for this cook. The Brown sugar in the brine cure really gives it a deep colored bark without it tasting burnt.

I waited until it hit an I.T. of 145°, then started glazing it with a brown sugar & pineapple juice glaze. It caramelized very nicely without burning.


If you mean the pink color of the meat: It was cured, like a ham, before smoking: A Couple of Old School Picnic Hams
