Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds fully cooked ham
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 8 ounces pineapple slices (with juice)
- 0.25 cup honey
- 10 pieces cloves (optional)
Instructions
Unwrap the ham and pat it dry with a paper towel.
Spread the brown sugar evenly across the bottom of the crock pot.
Place the ham flat side down into the crock pot.
Pour the pineapple juice from the can over the ham, then place the pineapple slices on top and around the ham.
Drizzle the honey over the top of the ham and pineapple slices.
If desired, stud the ham with whole cloves for extra flavor.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours, or until the ham is heated through and tender.
Baste the ham with the juices from the bottom of the crock pot every hour if possible for added moisture and flavor.
Once done, carefully remove the ham from the crock pot and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
