Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 8-10 pound (3.6-4.5kg) fully cooked ham
  • ½ cup (100g) packed brown sugar, light or dark
  • ½ cup (120ml) honey
  • ¼ cup (70g) Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon ground clove
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Place the ham in a 6 quart (or larger) slow cooker.  
  • In a small bowl combine the remaining ingredients and pour over the ham.  Cover with lid and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours and HIGH for 2-4 hours or until ham reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
  • Remove ham from slow cooker, cover loosely and allow to rest.  Meanwhile, pour juices into a saucepan and bring to a simmer.  Mix a small amount of cornstarch with water and pour in a thin stream into the boiling sauce while whisking to thicken.  Brush over ham and serve sliced ham with glaze.  (This is optional but really tasty!)

Notes

  1. STORAGE: Store in an airtight container in its juices in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. 
  2. This recipe uses an 8-10 pound ham which is as big as you can go with a 6 quart slow cooker.  I used a 10 pound ham and it was a little bit too tall so I trimmed a couple of inches from the top of the ham so the lid could fit.
  3. This recipe will also work with a fully cooked spiral cut ham.
  4. There is no need to baste the ham during the cooking but if it makes you feel better it doesn't hurt!
  5. I prefer to cook ham on LOW to ensure tender, juicy ham.
