• servings: 10 servings
• active time: 15 minutes
• total time: 7 hours 15 minutes

Ingredients

1 6 to 8 pound ham

2 tablespoons mustard

2 teaspoons liquid smoke

1 tablespoon brown sugar barbecue rub

1 cup barbecue sauce

1/2 cup apricot preserves

Directions

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Stir mustard and liquid smoke together in a small bowl. Rub mustard mixture evenly over ham and sprinkle barbecue rub all over. Place ham in a large disposable pan or large deep pan lined with foil. Cover with foil.

Bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours.

Remove pan from oven. Increase oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Stir barbecue sauce and apricot preserves together in a bowl; pour mixture over ham and spread evenly. Cover with foil.

Bake until a meat thermometer or instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of ham reads 205 degrees F (96 degrees C), 5 to 6 hours. Let stand until ham is cool enough to handle, 10 to 15 minutes. Shred ham with 2 forks and toss with pan drippings.
