What you’ll need
- A 7-8 quart size crock pot
- Ham– 2-5 pounds. I’m using a little over 4 pounds which will serve 6 people.
- Orange Marmalade– substitute apricot or peach jam
- Mustard– Stone ground mustard is my favorite, but you can also use yellow mustard, dijon, brown mustard or honey mustard. Any mustard you have on hand will work!
- Maple syrup– or use honey for sweetness
- Seasonings– garlic powder, black pepper, onion powder.
- Carving knife to easily slice the ham. These are so worth the investment, it makes carving meat a breeze. I personally own this electric knife and I LOVE it! So easy to use.
How to make Slow Cooker Glazed Ham
Score the ham. If it’s not already done for you, use a sharp knife and score the ham in a diamond pattern by cutting about 1/2 inch down in the fat or rind sides. Place the ham in the crock pot.
Prepare the glaze. To a bowl add the orange marmalade, mustard, maple syrup, and seasonings.
Microwave 30 seconds to 1 minute to melt the marmalade and make it easy to mix together.
Pour the glaze over the ham. Cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2 1/2 hours.
Carve. Let the ham rest on the cutting board for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with a side of mashed potatoes and your favorite veggie for an easy, comforting meal.
So juicy and delicious! Your family will love this recipe.
