Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 8–10 pound bone-in ham (fully cooked)
Instructions
- Place a slow cooker liner inside (if using) for easy cleanup. Set your fully cooked bone-in ham inside the cooker.
- In a bowl, combine brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground cloves, and pineapple juice until well blended to create a flavorful glaze.
- Pour half of your glaze mixture over the ham, ensuring it is well coated. Reserve the other half for later.
- Cover your slow cooker and cook on low heat for about 6 hours or until heated through. Optionally, baste the ham with juices halfway through cooking.
- When there is about 1 hour left of cooking time, pour the remaining glaze over the ham to achieve that desired sticky finish.
- Once cooking is complete, transfer the ham to a cutting board and let it rest before slicing. Serve on plates drizzled with sauce.
