Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 pounds fully cooked bone-in ham
- 0.5 cups brown sugar
- 8 slices pineapple slices (canned, with juice)
- 0.5 cups pineapple juice (from can)
- 0.25 cups honey
- 12 pieces cloves (whole)
Instructions
Unwrap the ham and gently pat it dry with paper towels. Place the ham flat side down in the crockpot.
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top and sides of the ham.
Arrange the pineapple slices on top and around the ham. Secure them with toothpicks if necessary.
Pour the pineapple juice from the can into the bottom of the crockpot, ensuring it doesn’t wash away the sugar on the ham.
Drizzle the honey over the ham and pineapple slices for added sweetness.
Insert the whole cloves into the sides of the ham for a subtle, aromatic flavor boost.
Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours, basting occasionally with the juices if possible.
When the ham is warmed through (internal temperature of 140°F), remove it carefully from the crockpot.
Let the ham rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve warm with the pineapple slices and juices drizzled over the top.
