Ingredients
- ¼ cup light brown sugar
- 2 to 3 prigs fresh Rosemary optional
- 8 to 10 pound spiral ham fully cooked, see notes for other ham
For the Glaze
- ½ cup apricot preserves apple jelly, or orange marmalade
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
Instructions
- For the glaze, in a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the preserves or jelly. Whisk in the brown sugar, Dijon mustard, vinegar, garlic powder, and ground ginger. Bring to a boil and let boil for 1 minute while stirring.
- In the bottom of a 6 to 7-quart slow cooker, sprinkle ¼ cup of brown sugar.
- If the ham has a plastic disk in the center, remove the disk and discard it. Place the ham on a large cutting board or baking sheet and use a knife to score the top* of the ham, ⅛-inch deep, in a criss-cross pattern.
- Separate the layers of ham and brush some of the glaze into the layers. Place the ham into the slow cooker and pour the remaining glaze over the top.
- Add rosemary sprigs, cover slow cooker (see note), and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until the ham reaches 140℉.
Notes
- Temp Check: Slow cookers can vary; check the ham early using an instant-read thermometer to ensure it doesn't overcook.
- Ham: Be sure to check your package to ensure that the ham is smoked/ fully cooked. The package will tell what temperature the ham needs to reach.
- Score the ham: If your ham is not spiral cut, score the ham to allow the glaze to seep into the meat.
- Substitution: Apple jelly can be substituted with apricot jam/jelly/preserves, apple butter, or even orange marmalade.
- Ham Size: If the ham is too large for the lid to close completely, cover the slow cooker with foil and place the lid on top of the foil to seal in the heat.
- Leftovers: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days and in the freezer for 4 months.
