In a medium saucepan, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, yellow mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and water. Stir well to combine.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
While the sauce simmers, slice the ham into thin strips if it isn't pre-sliced.
Add the sliced ham to the barbecue sauce, stirring to coat all pieces evenly.
Reduce the heat to low and allow the ham to simmer in the sauce for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and infused with flavor.
Toast the hamburger buns lightly if desired.
Spoon the ham barbecue mixture onto the bottom half of each bun, then place the top half over the filling to form a sandwich.
Serve the ham barbecue sandwiches immediately, paired with your favorite side dishes like coleslaw, potato salad, or chips.
