Ingredients

Scale

Ham

  • 58 pound spiral sliced boneless whole ham

Glaze

  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the slow cooker: Line a 6-8 quart slow cooker with a crockpot liner to simplify cleanup and prevent sticking.
  2. Place the ham: Put the spiral sliced ham inside the lined slow cooker and set the heat to low to begin slow cooking.
  3. Make the glaze: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey, butter, and brown sugar. Stir frequently until all ingredients melt and combine into a smooth glaze.
  4. Apply the glaze: Brush the glaze liberally and evenly over the entire ham, ensuring every slice is coated.
  5. Cook the ham: Cover the slow cooker and cook the ham on low heat for approximately 5 hours. Every 30 to 45 minutes, brush additional glaze over the ham, using the glaze until finished.
  6. Check doneness: The ham is ready once it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C). Total cooking time may vary depending on ham size and slow cooker model.

Notes

  • Use a crockpot liner for easy cleanup.
  • Adjust cooking time based on the size of your ham and your slow cooker’s heat settings.
  • You may not need to use all the glaze; reserve some for brushing multiple times during cooking.
  • Ensure the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F for safe serving.
  • This recipe works best with a spiral sliced, boneless ham for optimal glaze absorption and easy serving.
