HOW TO COOK A PICNIC HAM - SMOKED PORK SHOULDER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F
• Place picnic ham on a large roasting pan or baking dish, fat side up. Pour 3/4 cup of water into the bottom of the baking dish.
• Cover roasting pan with foil and bake in the oven for 1 hour. This allows the rind to be removed easily.
• Remove the foil and peel the rind off the top of the fat cap. Cut cross check slits into the fat and about 1/2 inch into the meat of the ham.
• Puree remaining ingredients (oranges, brown sugar, vinegar, honey, mustard, cinnamon, salt and cayenne) in a blender to make the glaze. Brush some of the glaze all over the ham, making sure to get into the slits.
• Bake for another 2 hours, uncovered. Brush the glaze after 1 hour cooking time and then again about 30 minutes later. Bake the remaining 30 minutes.
• Once done cooking, the fat should be starting to crisp and the glaze nicely caramelized. Let the ham rest for about 5 minutes before carving.
• Carve the ham into nice sized serving slices. Serve with glazed carrots, potatoes, squash and more!
