Aleas Slow Cooker Honey Glazed Ham Recipes

ALEA'S SLOW COOKER HONEY GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Place water in the bottom of the slow cooker. Place ham in the slow cooker. Place lid on top and cook on HIGH for 1 hour.
• In a small pan, combine brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, orange juice and orange peel. Cook over medium heat until it reaches a boil.
• Drizzle honey mixture over ham.
• Lower the temperature on the slow cooker to LOW heat and cook for 3 hours.
• Slice and serve.
• Even a small ham produces a lot of meat. I use the leftover ham in recipes throughout the week. I save the ham bone to use in soup. Leftover ham can also be frozen and then thawed for an easy dinner on a busy night.

SLOW-COOKED HONEY-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Blend brown sugar, honey, molasses, orange juice, and mustard together in a saucepan over medium-low heat until thickened, about 45 minutes. Remove from heat. Let glaze sit until flavors blend, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Place ham in a roasting pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven, checking occasionally, about 10 hours. If ham begins to darken at that point, cover with aluminum foil. Continue baking, about 2 hours more.
• Increase oven temperature to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Bake, coating ham thoroughly with the glaze mixture every 30 minutes, about 2 hours more. Remove from the oven and let stand 15 to 20 minutes before slicing. Serve any remaining glaze with ham, if desired.

HONEY-BAKED SPIRAL HAM IN THE SLOW COOKER

Steps:

• Pour water into the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour sauce over the ham. Cover.
• Cook in the slow cooker on Low, 6 to 8 hours. Baste the ham with the juices from the bottom once every hour.
• Remove ham from the slow cooker. Pour juices from the bottom into a saucepan over medium heat. Mix cornstarch and water together in a bowl and pour into the saucepan. Cook until mixture thickens into a glaze, 6 to 8 minutes. Pour glaze over the ham or use as a gravy.
