Sure do! You can do this on a smoked ham or a fresh ham. I'm not a big drinker, but I do cook with it. I also like the idea of the beer and brown sugar. The ginger ale sounds great if you get one with real ginger in it. The acid also tenderizes it. We often use the ham juices to cook a pot of rice, so it makes for great rice as well!
The beer and brown sugar is really good. The beer seems to cut both the salt of the ham and the sweet of the sugar so, IMO, it makes the perfect combo of salt/sweet, with neither being too much. The beer also tenderizes. I baste a few times with the liquid in the bottom of the pan. Yum!

Another vote for Cooks Butt Half. The shank is all bone. I cook mine low and slow in the oven with beer and brown sugar.
Cook's Butt Here also. This year I get a free one from Foodtown. I'm going to try David Venable's recipe. Sounds Good!
Serves 8–10
This recipe is prepared with the Circulon Hard Anodized 11-Piece Cookware Set (K41886).

I'm still going to stick with Honey Baked Hams. They are always good, and my family loves them. We order on the Internet, and pick them up - usually no line unless you wait until the last minute. Why change if something works?

Funny thing is, I don't like to drink beer, but I will cook with it in soups, stews, and things. Cabbage is great with it as well!

I always buy my hams at Aldi. They're Cook's brand, and much much less than in the other stores. I buy a butt ... more meat, smaller bone, it's really a shoulder.
Cook it covered with foil at 325 for 10-15 mins per lb until thermometer reads 140.
Remove from oven, "paint on" a paste of grainy mustard, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, a little ground cloves and orange juice to moisten.
Return to the oven and broil uncovered until it's bubbly.
