Ingredients
1 fully cooked ham (spiral or boneless, 3–5 lbs)
1 to 1½ cups brown sugar (light or dark)
Instructions
Prepare the Crockpot
Place the ham in the crockpot, flat side down. If needed, trim the ham slightly so the lid can close.
Add the Brown Sugar
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top of the ham, pressing it gently so it sticks.
Slow Cook
Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2–3 hours, until the ham is heated through and tender.
Baste (Optional)
Halfway through cooking, spoon some of the melted brown sugar glaze over the ham for extra flavor.
Serve
Remove the ham, slice, and drizzle with the sweet glaze from the crockpot before serving.
Serving Tips
Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or dinner rolls.
Leftovers are perfect for sandwiches, omelets, or salads.
