Penseys adobo contains no salt, but still it would ruin a cured ham.

Comparing a cured ham to a fresh ham is like comparing a kosher salami
to a fresh chuck roast. However Penzeys adobo is excellent on fresh
ham or any fresh pork... I always use Penzeys adobo on fresh ham, a
perfect marriage, wonderful on pork chops too. Cured ham works best
with sweet/sugar, no salt.
