Got this idea from Eraine a couple of weeks ago. 
I bought half of one of those "football" hams as Bear calls them. 
Like him, I usually don't buy them because I don't care for the rind but this was on sale and I had these potatoes on my mind.
I scored the top of the ham and smoked until it hit 140 IT then let it rest until cool enough to handle. I sliced a few pieces, cut off the rind and then diced it. OK, so I don't really have a recipe here but did something like this...sliced about 4 potatoes in about 1/4" or so slices. Mixed a little half and half and a little milk with a couple tablespoons of flour in my 10" DO. Added the potatoes, ham, 2 cups of Colby Jack shredded cheese and a good amount of salt and pepper. I let that bake with 7 coals on the bottom and 13 on top for about an hour. I was also smoking some rib trimmings that I found at the grocery for cheap and a few chicken thighs. Potatoes with the ham turned out really good but I'm going to work on the recipe and maybe add a little onion and who knows what else.
Also had some applesauce but took this pic before it made it on my plate.
Thanks for looking!

Excellent cook!
That is pure comfort food right there. Can't go wrong with potatoes, ham and cheese.
