Ingredients

Spiral ham – You can use any size ham that is convenient for your needs. Forget that glaze packet that comes with it. The brown sugar and pineapple give it all the flavor you need.

Step-By-Step Instructions

Add the spiral ham to the Crock Pot and sprinkle the brown sugar on top. I removed the bone and part of the ham because it would not fit in the Crock Pot otherwise. I will use it later for ham and beans. You don’t have to remove the bone if it fits in your slow cooker.

I bought a 10-pound ham. You can easily get a smaller size.

Next, add the crushed pineapple and spread it around the ham. Place the lid on top and cook on the low temperature setting for 4 -5 hours.

You do not need any liquid for the recipe, as the ham will release juices as it cooks, keeping it tender.

If you need another ham for the holidays, baked ham with Coca-Cola glaze is another sweet and savory recipe for the oven.

If you end up with leftover ham, add it to ham and potato casserole or add it to some cheesy au gratin potatoes or make another big ham meal for the family with beans. It is a great way to use it up.
