So my cousins kids have started to raise hogs for 4H.
I bought half a hog. In doing so I had the butcher slice the "ham" portion.
Not being cured in any way I am not sure I can call it ham.

Anyways, my idea was to smoke the slices as needed for supper. Has anyone done this? Brining ideas? I am thinking I would only need a few hours smoke then grill it to finish.
 
I'm a BBQ noob myself, but I think they call that a fresh ham and it can be smoked just like a pork butt. Just look BBQ recipes for fresh ham and I think you'll be good.
 
Yup, its still called a ham. Fresh ham, as compared to a cured ham that you are thinking of. I guess my only suggestion would be to only go hot n fast with the smoke, even grilling direct over a wood fire. I would be careful with any low n slow before going direct, unless the steaks are over an inch thick. I would think that anything thinner would dry out some.
