Ham from the hog I killed the other week going on the grill

That looks good. I'll be doing that at the beginning of turkey season when we get back to camp. I shot about a 150lb sow a few weeks ago and have both hams in the freezer. I can't wait.

Don't get me wrong, the BGE is a fantastic cooker, but for long slow cooking items, I've gotten to where I just use it to smoke for a couple of hours, and then I generally move it to a crock pot. I had a good system for cooking a fantastic butt on the BGE, but one time I needed to be away from the house for most of the day so I just smoked the BB and moved it to the crock pot. There was no comparison - the smoke/crock pot combo blew it away. Much juicer, and it retained the meat flavor/taste better so you weren't overwhelmed by the smoky flavor. I've been cooking them that way every since.
