Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This classic ham recipe has long been a staple at family gatherings, holiday feasts, and potlucks for a reason.
The combination of brown sugar, honey, and pineapple creates a sticky-sweet glaze that caramelizes beautifully as it cooks,
complementing the smoky, savory flavors of the ham.

Ingredients

• 1 spiral-cut ham (7–10 pounds), fully cooked
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup honey
• 1 can pineapple slices or chunks (with juice)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Ham

Remove the ham from its packaging and discard any plastic or netting. Place the ham flat side down in your slow cooker,
making sure it fits snugly. Most standard slow cookers accommodate a 7 to 10-pound ham.

2. Make the Glaze

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and honey until the mixture is smooth and well blended.

3. Apply the Glaze

Using a brush or spoon, generously coat the entire surface of the ham with the glaze. Be sure to get in between the spiral slices for maximum flavor.

4. Add the Pineapple

Place the pineapple slices or chunks on top of and around the ham. Pour the pineapple juice from the can evenly over the ham.
This will help infuse the meat with a subtle fruity acidity as it cooks.

5. Cook Low and Slow

Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it to low. Cook for 4 to 5 hours,
or until the ham is heated through and tender. Baste the ham with the cooking juices occasionally for extra flavor and moisture.

6. Serve and Enjoy

Carefully remove the ham from the slow cooker and let it rest for a few minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and
spoon some of the remaining juices over the top before serving. The result is a beautifully glazed, juicy ham that’s sure to impress.
