Cooked coppa

Has anyone cooked a coppa? To me this is what capicola is. To be eaten on a deli sandwich. If so, can you share the process? I am thinking to EQ cure like normal but with #1 then maybe sous vide at 145 for a couple hours.

I use to do them all the time, except I would do them in the smoker. Never had a SV but I don't know why it wouldn't work. They are also called Picnic Hams when they're cooked instead of dry cured.

So did you smoke to an IT of around 145?

Prosciutto Cotto (cooked) is common enough so why not a Coppa - it's only like what we in the UK call shoulder ham.

I usually take my pork to 155°, 145°is a little to rare for me.
