Ham in the crockpot

AngelaVA · 03-23-2016, 12:46 PM

I would like to make a ham in the crockpot for Easter. DH got a boneless "carving ham" from Costco. It's not quite the right dimensions (too flat and wide) I think I would have to cut it. Is that a problem? I was thinking I would do brown sugar and pineapple juice to glaze it. Ok for the crock pot? I'm not a hugely successful crockpot cook but it sure would make my life easier getting to the Easter Day gathering on time and with my sanity fully intact. Advice appreciated.

I've made Easter ham in the crockpot for several years now and I really like it. One year the ham stuck up so I couldn't put the lid on. I just wrapped really, really tightly several layers of aluminum foil to make the lid. I think the glaze sounds really yummy. I've only done fully cooked hams and reheated in the crockpot.

This one says fully cooked, does that mean I shouldn't do the brown sugar and pineapple or just that it's ok if the lid doesn't fit all the way since I'm just hearing it?

No, sorry, I wasn't very clear.

I've only done fully cooked hams in the crockpot so I don't have much advice for uncooked hams. I've done glazes on mine in the crockpot so I think that should be fine, and I think if the ham doesn't fit quite, one would still need to provide a good cover, like aluminum foil, so that the crockpot would cook properly.

How did it turn out?

It was ok. I think the oven would have been better. Hard to glaze in the crock pot, just ended up a pool of liquid at the bottom.

Aw, that's a bummer.

I did ham in the crock as well, inspired by you all. It disintegrated a bit, but was tasty. I've never really cooked a ham before, so I have no comparison.

My mom had us over & sent us home with some leftover ham. I found a pinterest recipe for crockpot ham & scalloped potatoes that was really good!
