Start by patting the ham dry. Score the skin to open up the meat.
Apply yellow mustard for the binder and season with an all purpose rub all over the ham.
Place the seasoned ham on a wire rack in a deep aluminum roasting pan and pour in the orange juice.
Preheat the grill to 250 degrees and set for indirect heat. Place the ham with the foil pan on the grill.
Once the internal temperature of the ham reaches 140 degrees, wrap it in foil and continue cooking on the grill.
In a saucepan, add bbq sauce, brown sugar, honey, a stick of butter and some all purpose seasoning. Mix it all together and simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Once the internal temperature of the ham reaches 190 degrees, remove the foil and start brushing the homemade bbq glaze over the ham. Be sure to get ever part coated.
Leave the ham on the smoker and continue to cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing the glaze to caramelize.
Remove the ham from the smoker, cover loosely with foil and allow it to rest for 45-60 minutes at room temperature.
Remove the bones from the ham and shred the meat. You can use 2 forks to make it easier. I like to leave the pieces a little bigger for better texture.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Score the ham in a checkered pattern. This will allow more smokiness and flavor from the seasoning to penetrate the meat.Place the ham on a wire rack and into a pan or use a roasting pan. Pour orange or apple juice in the bottom of the pan to keep moisture levels high while smoking.
