I have tried half hams on several occasions. I just can't get them to turn out the way I like. I believe its due to the cook time, but I'm not sure.
It should be a good learning experience for you and provide some good eats for the next week or two.
One piece of advice. Keep the ham covered in cheesecloth and aluminum foil after cooling and while in the fridge. The long cook time and no covering will cause them to dry out quickly. Also, they will keep longer if left whole. Only cut as much as you are going to use in that serving.
