The length of time you can keep a smoked ham without refrigeration depends on a number of factors, including the curing methods used and conditions in the place you intend to store it.

The ham must have been fully and properly cured, either by salting, brining, or smoking, or a combination of these methods. By the time you get it, the ham will almost certainly have been aged for the correct amount of time by the producer and so will be ready to use as your recipe requires without further storage.

Bear in mind that even without refrigeration a whole ham, smoked or not, will need to be kept in a cool, dry, airy place. It will not keep for any amount of time in a hot, steamy kitchen.
