I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I saw that homesicktexan one online! Ha!

Cathryn, Is it down the old way - where you hung the ham in a cool place and let it drip?

Larry, I have been using this recipe. I cut the hock so as to get the cure in there. You mix all ingredients, rub into meat and put the rest in the vacuum bag and seal. The bag goes into the fridge and flipped over once every day for a week. Then remove from the bag rinse in clean water and then soak overnight in clean water. Air dry and smoke. I also added a lot of black pepper to my mix going into the bag.
Use the bottom recipe. [Linked Image]

That recipe may have been meant for making bacon I’m not sure. The hams I have used it on don’t usually weigh but about 5 pounds. When I kill a bunch of pigs and have time to clean some of them the ones that I can load in the back of my truck by hand are the ones that get cleaned the others get drug off to the dead pile.

That's close to what I do for bacon. I'm sure it will work for ham too.
