Servings: 8
Equipment
- 1 slow cooker
Ingredients
- 1/4 - 1/2 ham precooked, we made 1/4 ham
- 1 can pineapple chunks or tidbits
- 1 c brown sugar
- 4 cloves whole, optional
- 2 tbsp honey
- 3/4 c pineapple juice use what's in the can
Instructions
- Put your precooked ham inside your slow cooker. We had a quarter ham that fit nicely, if you have a really large crockpot you may be able to cook a half ham in it.
- In a small bowl mix together your cup of brown sugar and 3/4 cup of pineapple juice. Pour this on top of your ham.
- Push your whole cloves into your ham (optional). Pour 1 cup of pineapple chunks or tidbits on top of your ham, drizzle your honey on top and close your lid.
- If cooking a quarter ham like we did set to low for 3-4 hours until it is warmed in the center (remember it is already cooked). If cooking a half ham (assuming you can fit that) cook on low for 6-8 or until warmed to your liking. (check temp. at min. timing to see how close to 145 F it is)
- Baste the ham half way thru the cooking process with the juices at the bottom. Check internal temp. of ham in center, should reach 145 before serving.
- Slice and serve drizzled with pineapple sauce in slow cooker. If you want to thicken the sauce you can dump sauce (without pineapple chunks) into a small pan on your stovetop. Take some liquid out and whisk it together with 1-3 tbsp of cornstarch in a small bowl.
- Dump this back into your pot and allow to bubble until it thickens to your liking, then serve this on the side to pour on top.
