Ingredients
-
1 9 lb. fully cooked ham
-
enough yellow mustard to coat the outside of the ham
-
seasoning rub of your choice
Ham Glaze
-
1 cup brown sugar
-
½ cup honey (or agave)

¼ cup yellow mustard
1 Food Prep
Rub the yellow mustard onto the ham to give your seasoning rub something to stick to, then add your favorite rub, coating liberally.
2 Grill Prep
Fuel: We recommend Kingsford® Charcoal Briquets (Classic Hickory)
Method: Charcoal Snake
Temp: 250–300°F (Low Heat)
Carefully hold your hand about 5” to 6” above the grate, and refer to the temperature settings below:
• High Heat (450° to 550°F):
2 to 4 seconds
• Medium Heat (350° to 450°F):
5 to 6 seconds
• Low Heat (250° to 350°F):
8 to 10 seconds
Make sure your clothing doesn’t touch the grate, and always move your hand away from the heat before you feel discomfort.
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
3 The Cook
Place the briquets in a circular pattern, leaving room for a disposable water pan.
Add the pan with water in the center of the grill to create moisture.
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
Place the ham on the grill grate directly over the water pan.
In a grill-proof saucepan, combine and heat the ingredients for the ham glaze.
About 30 minutes prior to the end of cooking time, begin glazing the ham every 10 minutes.
The ham should take 20–30 minutes per pound to reach an internal temperature of 145°F on a digital meat thermometer, and a nice bark has formed on the outside.
Remove from heat and let the ham rest for 10 minutes.
Slice and enjoy!
