Christmas Ham

The good thing about most hams is that they are already cooked. So, cooking one for Christmas is all about heating it up and adding some flavor. This slow cooker recipe makes the house smell great and produces a great ham that is easy to pull off.

 

Ingredients

1 9 pound ham (small enough to fit in your slow cooker)
2 cups brown sugar
1 can pineapple slices
20 whole cloves (optional)

 

Cooking Directions

Place the ham in your slow cooker, fat side down. If you have to trim some of the ham off to fit, go ahead and trim from the small end.
 
Spread the brown sugar over the ham.
 
Optional:  Stick the whole cloves into the top of the ham.
 
Add pineapples to top.
 
Set slow cooker to cook for four hours.
