You may never want to prepare Ham any other way again!

1 Large Shank Portion Ham
¼ Cup Zy-Sauce Marinade
½ Cup Honey
¼ Cup Karo Light Corn Syrup
½ Cup Light Brown Sugar
3 TBLS Lemon Juice
½ Cup Welch's Red Grape Juice
Hickory Chips (For Smoking)

Mix the following ingredients in a bowl to create the Zy-Sauce Ham Glaze.

  • Zy-Sauce Marinade
  • Honey
  • Karo Light Corn Syrup

Microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute to heat glaze. Mix until well blended and
the brown sugar has completely disolved.

Place Hickory chips in a bucket of water. Be sure that the water level covers all of
the Hickory Chips.

  1. Using a sharp knife, make slices across the entire top of the Ham (1 inch apart)
    vertically, cutting through the thickest part of the skin and 1 inch deep into the meat.

  2. Using a sharp knife, make slices across the entire top of the Ham (1 inch apart)
    horizontally, cutting through the thickest part of the skin and 1 inch deep into the meat.

    The cuts should now form a criss-cross pattern. The top of Ham will look like small cubes.

    DO NOT exceed 250 degrees!

  4. Be sure to place a drip pan in smoker, underneath the Ham. Put 1/2 inch of water.
    in drip pan. Place Ham in a "approved" prepared smoker. Baste Ham liberally with
    the Zy-Sauce Ham Glaze.

  5. Cook Ham in closed smoker for 2 hours adding charcoal as necessary to hold the
    temperature between 225 - 250 degrees.

  6. Baste Ham and continue smoking. Add one large handful of hickory chips over
    the top of heated charcoal. Close smoker and allow to smoke for 1 hour.

  7. Baste Ham and continue smoking. Add one large handful of hickory chips over
    the top of heated charcoal. Close smoker and continue to smoke for another hour.

  8. Baste Ham and continue smoking. Add one large handful of hickory chips over
    the top of heated charcoal. Close smoker and continue to smoke Ham for 1 final hour.

The drippings in the drip pan can be used as a final baste for the Ham slices!
