Ingredients
- 6 lbs fully cooked bone-in ham
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.25 tsp ground cloves
- 0.25 cup water
Directions
Step 1
Unwrap the ham and place it in a large crock pot. If it doesn’t fit, trim as necessary to fit snugly, ensuring the lid can close properly.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and water until fully combined.
Step 3
Pour the maple syrup mixture evenly over the ham, ensuring the entire surface is coated. Use a basting brush if needed for even coverage.
Step 4
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to low heat.
Step 5
Cook on low for 5 hours, basting the ham with the glaze every hour to ensure maximum flavor absorption.
Step 6
About 15 minutes before serving, carefully transfer the ham to a cutting board and allow it to rest.
Step 7
Pour the remaining glaze from the crock pot into a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Step 8
Slice the ham and serve warm with the reduced glaze drizzled on top.
