THE BEST CROCKPOT HAM | SLOW COOKER HAM

Steps:

• Remove ham from the packaging and discard any flavoring packet. If using a bone-in ham, check the end of the bone for a plastic cap and, if present, discard.
• Pour the pineapple juice in bottom of a large (6- to 9-quart), oval slow cooker.
• In a medium bowl, mix the brown sugar, Dijon, balsamic vinegar, and honey into a paste. Spread brown sugar mixture all over ham and place, flat side down, in slow cooker.
• Cover slow cooker with lid and set to LOW. Cook ham for 4 to 6 hours or until the meat is tender and the internal temperature reaches 140°F. If desired, flip and baste the ham halfway through cooking time and again about an hour before the ham is done.
• Once ham is done, remove to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm and rest for 15 minutes. Skim any fat and strain the juices from the crock pot into a saucepan. Place the pot on the stove over medium heat and bring the juices to a simmer.
• In a small bowl, use a fork to stir the cornstarch into the water to make a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the pot while whisking the ham juices. Allow the mixture to bubble and thicken for a minute or two, stirring occasionally. If you desire a thicker sauce, you may make and stir in a bit more cornstarch slurry.
• Serve the ham warm, with the sauce on the side or spooned on top.

CROCK POT HAM WITH BROWN SUGAR

Steps:

• Coat a large 7-8 quart crock pot with cooking spray.
• Place the ham cut side down in the crock pot.
• Rub the brown sugar all over the ham, then pour the maple syrup and pineapple juice over the top.
• Cook for 3-4 hours on low heat, or until a thermometer registers 140 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the ham.
• Transfer the ham to a serving platter.
• Pour the liquid from the bottom of the crock pot into a medium sized pan.
• Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring the liquid to a simmer.
• Cook for 6-8 minutes or until just thickened,
• Pour the sauce over the ham. Decorate the serving platter with fresh herbs if desired, then serve.

SLOW-COOKER HAM WITH APRICOT-DIJON GLAZE

Steps:

• Whisk together the jam, mustard, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a small pot. Bring the mixture to a boil to melt the sugar, whisking occasionally. Reduce the heat to a simmer until the mixture thickens, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, and reserve.
• Add 3/4 cup water to the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker. Place the ham in the insert on its side, and brush lightly with the glaze. Cover, and cook on low until the ham is hot throughout, 6 to 7 hours. Refrigerate the remaining glaze.
• When the ham has about 10 minutes left to cook, reheat the glaze in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently.
• Transfer the ham to a carving platter or serving dish, and brush with enough glaze to make a glossy, sticky coating. Slice, and serve with the remaining glaze on the side.

SLOW COOKER HAM

Steps:

• Spread about 1 1/2 cups of brown sugar on the bottom of the slow cooker crock. Place the ham flat side down into the slow cooker - you might have to trim it a little to make it fit. Use your hands to rub the remaining brown sugar onto the ham. Cover, and cook on Low for 8 hours.

FANTASTIC CROCK POT/SLOW COOKER HAM

Steps:

• Spray the inside of your crock pot with cooking spray.
• Pour the pineapple juice into the bottom of the crock pot.
• Sprinkle about 1-1/2 cups brown sugar onto the juice.
• Rub the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar onto the ham.
• Place the ham fat-side down into the crockpot.
• Cover and cook on LOW for 8-9 hours (you may baste the ham about halfway through cooking time, do this quickly to prevent a lot of heat to escape from the crock pot).
• Make sure ham in uncooked, with bone inches Face ham fat side up, this with the vinger makes it fall right off the bone. No carving needed.

CROCK POT COLA HAM

Steps:

• Remove ham from packaging.
• Lightly score ham in diagonal lines first one way, then crosswise, to form a diamond pattern, being careful not to cut any deeper than about a eighth of an inch. (You can score both sides if you like).
• Make a paste of brown sugar and mustard (I used Boar's Head Honey Mustard).
• Rub paste into ham on sides that have been lightly scored.
• Transfer to crock pot.
• Pour in two cans of coca cola into bottom of pot, not pouring directly over ham to wash away brown sugar paste.
• Cook on low 7-8 hours.

CROCKPOT HAM--SIMPLE

Steps:

• Put ham in crock pot (slice off a side to make it fit if you need to--I use a 7qt slow cooker).
• Dump cranberry sauce on top.
• HAVE FUN! Rub sauce in between slices.
• Dump pineapple and juice on top of ham.
• Cook on low for eight hours.
• Eat thankfully.

EASY SLOW COOKER HAM

Steps:

• Press whole cloves into the ham so they are evenly distributed. You may score the ham for easier insertion if you wish. Place the ham in a slow cooker. Pour in apple cider until only about 2 inches of ham is above the surface. Pack the brown sugar on top of the ham, pressing into the cloves. This will get washed away in the next step but any that stays on is a bonus.
• Pour the maple syrup over the ham. Season the apple cider with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, ground cloves and vanilla. Add the orange peel to the pot. Fill the slow cooker as full as you can with apple cider without going over the fill line. Cover and set to Low. Cook for 8 to 10 hours.
