For the brown sugar mixture:
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon cloves ground
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- ground ginger dash
- onion powder dash
Instructions
- Place the spiral cut ham in the bottom of the slow cooker. (It's ok if the lid doesn't fit on. There's a trick for that!) Pour orange juice and pineapple juice overtop the ham. 8-9 pound fully cooked spiral sliced bone-in ham, 1 cup orange juice, 1 cup pineapple juice
- In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar and spices. 1 cup brown sugar, ¼ teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon paprika, Dash of ground ginger, Dash of onion powder
- Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of the brown sugar around the ham, into the juices. Then press the rest of the brown sugar mix onto the top of the ham. Separate the slices lightly so that the sugar mixture gets down in between.
- If the lid doesn't fit, cover the top of the slow cooker with aluminum foil. Set to low and cook for 4-5 hours.
- Baste the ham with the juices once or twice during cooking if desired. When the ham is heated through (140ºF), baste with juices, then serve.
