1 Slowly bring liquid to a boil, skimming any foam that forms on top. 2  As soon as it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low so that the liquid is only gently simmering. 3  Cover and let simmer until the meat is done. 4  Cook for 20 to 25 minutes per pound after it starts simmering. To boil, place the ham in a large pot or Dutch oven in which the meat will fit fairly tight, and then cover it with cold liquid. 2  Add desired flavorings. 3  The liquid used for boiling can be plain water, water seasoned with herbs and spices, stock, or water with the addition of ingredients such as wine or fruit juices.
Once the ham is fully cured it can be dried out overnight in the refrigerator, then hot-smoked at a temperature of 185 degrees Fahrenheit until its internal temperature reaches 150 F. This takes about 35 minutes per pound, or roughly 12 hours, for a full ham of around 20 pounds.
