Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pounds fully-cooked, bone-in ham
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 0.75 cup pineapple juice
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves
Instructions
Unwrap the ham and trim off any excess fat, but leave a thin layer for flavor.
Place the ham flat-side down in your crock pot.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, maple syrup, pineapple juice, cinnamon, and cloves to create the glaze.
Pour the glaze evenly over the ham, ensuring it seeps into all the crevices.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to low heat.
Cook for 4-5 hours, basting the ham with the glaze juices every hour using a spoon or baster.
When the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C), it is fully warmed through and ready to serve.
Carefully remove the ham from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.
Serve with some of the additional glaze drizzled over the slices for extra flavor. Enjoy!
