Maple and Brown Sugar Ham

Maple Brown Sugar Ham in the Slow Cooker

(from melskitchencafe.com)

• 7-8 pound bone-in spiral-cut ham
• 1 cup dark brown sugar (I used regular)
• 1/2 cup all natural maple syrup (yes, please use pure maple syrup and not pancake syrup)
• 2 cups pineapple juice

Use a 6-7 quart slow cooker. Unwrap the ham and discard flavor packet. Place the ham into the slow cooker stoneware, flat-side down. Rub brown sugar on all sides. Pour on maple syrup and pineapple juice. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours. An hour before serving, baste ham with the collected juices from the bottom of the slow cooker. When cooking is done, remove carefully and let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes before carving.

Delicious!!  I used a 5 qt slow cooker and I had to split the ham in some places to fit but it was okay.  I also realized my ham was already cooked, but I put it in the crock pot anyway to warm it up and give it good flavor.  It was great!  I cooked it on low for 5 hours.  Tastes great with a mustard sauce as an accent flavor. I love you ham!
