To Smoke a Ham
After hams have completed time in salt cure and have been washed and allowed to dry, they should be hung from two to four days in a thin gauze of smoke at 90 degrees. Put your hand in the smoke; it should feel just warm. When a rich brown glaze covers the meat, hams may be taken from the smoker, hung to cool for several days and wrapped in two layers of paper, a cloth sack, and lastly, secured in brown paper bags. Age as desired.
For most recipes, Mrs. Firth suggests menus that would be a handy guide to meal planning such as this one for Sweet Potato Biscuits: Serve with chicken in wine sauce, asparagus tip salad, rice, buttered corn and chocolate cupcakes.
