Slow cooked honey glazed ham recipe
Making a honey glazed ham in the slow cooker is a simple way to prepare a flavorful, tender main dish with minimal effort.
Ingredients
- 2.5 lbs Boneless ham
- 2 carrots
- 2 celery stalks
- 1 onion
- 1 tablespoon whole peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon whole allspice
- thyme and rosemary sprigs
For the honey glaze
- ¼ cup mustard
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tablespoon Demerara sugar (or dark brown sugar)
Instructions
- Place the ham, peppercorns, all spice, onion, carrot, celery, thyme, and rosemary in a slow cooker.
- Add enough water to fully submerge the ham. Cover and cook on high for about 2 hours.
- Take the ham out of the broth and allow it to cool slightly. Trim off the skin and any extra fat, leaving a thin layer intact. Score the surface into square patterns.
- In a bowl, combine all the glaze ingredients and stir until well blended.
- Preheat the oven to 380°F. Line a baking dish with foil. Brush half of the glaze over the ham and place it in the prepared dish. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Coat the ham with the remaining glaze and continue baking for another 20 minutes.
- Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for about 10 mins before serving.
Notes
- To achieve a caramelized crust, broil the ham for the last 5 minutes of baking.
- Leftover ham can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or frozen for later use.
- If serving cold, let the ham cool completely before slicing. Cut into thin pieces and serve.
