This ham recipe is just perfect! Since the ham cooks in your slow cooker for a few hours, your oven is then freed up for other things, which is ideal for holiday cooking and baking!
Ingredients
- 1 spiral-sliced, fully-cooked boneless ham (4 to 7 pounds)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup Pahrump honey
- 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard or Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 cup water
Here’s how to make it:
- Place the ham in a slow cooker.
- In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, Pahrump honey, mustard, garlic, cloves and water. Heat on high until just warm enough to dissolve the sugar. Pour the mixture over the ham, making sure to pour the glaze between the slices.
- Cover the slow cooker tightly with the lid. If the ham is too large to fit with the lid closed, create a tight cover with aluminum foil instead. Cook on low for 3 to 4 hours or high for 2 to 3 hours, or until the ham is warmed through.
- Preheat the broiler. Transfer the ham to an oven-safe dish and set aside.
- Pour the cooking liquid into a small saucepan. Heat the liquid on medium-high for 5 to 7 minutes or until bubbly and thick. Brush onto ham, then broil for 4 to 5 minutes, removing ham to baste with additional glaze every minute or so.
