Unwrap the ham and pat it dry with paper towels. If desired, trim off any excess fat, leaving about 1/4 inch for flavor and moisture.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and black pepper to create the glaze.
Place the ham flat-side down in the slow cooker. If the ham is too large, you can trim it slightly to fit the crock pot.
Pour half of the honey Dijon glaze evenly over the ham, making sure to coat it well. Reserve the remaining glaze for later.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to LOW. Allow the ham to cook for 5 hours (300 minutes).
Halfway through the cooking time, spoon some of the cooking juices over the ham to baste it. This will help keep it moist and flavorful.
During the last hour of cooking, pour the reserved glaze over the ham and continue cooking covered for the remaining time.
Carefully remove the ham from the slow cooker onto a serving platter. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
Slice the ham and serve warm with any remaining glaze drizzled on top or served on the side.
