Slow Cooker Brown Sugar Pineapple Ham
Description
The recipe places an 8 to 10-pound spiral sliced ham in a slow cooker, trimming it if necessary to fit. Crushed canned pineapple including juice is poured over the ham then covered with brown sugar to infuse sweetness during slow cooking. The ham cooks on low heat for 2 to 3 hours, allowing the pineapple and sugar to meld into a flavorful glaze that penetrates the meat.
After cooking, an additional layer of brown sugar is applied before serving to enhance the sweet crust. The slow cooker setting helps keep the ham warm during events without drying it out. This approach provides a hands-off method to prepare a sweet, tender ham perfect for holiday meals or large gatherings.
