Hi, I’m going to make a Christmas ham to go alongside the turkey. I’ve ordered a gammon from the butchers and want to cook it on the Weber (Mastertouch 57cm). Has anybody got any good advice/recipes to follow please?

Thanks

Bill

Gets me out of the house on Christmas Day and I can have a beer in peace whilst I’m manning the bbq hehe I dunno whether to boil it and then just warm through on the bbq or whether to stick It on the bbq uncooked and leave it for a while. Also trying to find a decent glaze for it.

Boiling it then crisping it up on the BBQ is certainly the easy way, but I'd* go for the full cook.


*The tier 4 thing means we're probably on our own so plans are somewhat fluid.

I do a smoked ham on the bbq every year when we're in the UK. Being from the Southern hemisphere, it's not Christmas without a bbq! Ham isn't gammon so it's already cooked - all you're doing is adding flavour and altering texture so it's very forgiving. In the US a ham is a cut as well so recipe discovery can be tricky. I based mine on the bottom "cured ham" recipe below for temps and times but I cut off the skin and do a dry rub.
