Frozen easter ham ?????

[Flying_Spaghetti_Monster]

I have a full bone in fresh ham I am wanting to smoke. How long does it take to thaw in the fridge, and how do I smoke this thing?

Is it the salt brined picnic ham type?

Something like this?

If it's the salty type, I would soak it overnight in water on your countertop to get some of the salt out. Should be defrosted enough in the morning. Make a rub out of brown sugar, cinnamon, clove, little bit of black pepper. Add mustard for glue, rub generously and smoke unconvered for about 3 hours. Then wrap it in foil with some pineapple juice for another 1.5/2 hours. Then another 30/45 min without foil and it should be done.

Probably three days to thaw in frige.Smoke like a pork butt.Don't expect to pull it or it will be dry.When I do them I inject and go for slicing temp.(150*)The good thing is that if you can't wait until done I just slice off the outside and let the core cook more.
