Method
 

Step‑By‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern. Place the ham in a roasting pan.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine honey, Dijon mustard, and brown sugar over medium heat. Stir until smooth, about 5 minutes. Add cinnamon, cloves, and pepper, then remove from heat.
  3. Add wood chips to the smoker. Place scored ham on the smoker rack. Close the lid and smoke for 3 to 4 hours until it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C).
  4. Brush the ham with honey glaze every 30 minutes after the first 2 hours of smoking.
  5. Once the ham reaches the correct temperature, remove it from the smoker and tent with foil. Allow to rest for 20–30 minutes before slicing and serving.
