Ingredients
  

  • 1 pre-cooked ham 8-9 pounds, bone-in, and spiral sliced
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 cups white granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp ground clove
  • 1/2 tsp paprika

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Method
 

  1. Place the ham in the slow cooker (with aluminum insert) and drizzle with honey. Cook on low for 3 hours.
  2. Just before the ham is finished cooking, Preheat the oven to broil.
  3. In a saucepan add the sugar, onion powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, clove, paprika, and 6 tablespoons of liquid from the bottom of the slow cooker. Heat on high heat to a rolling boil, and boil for about 1 minute.
  4. Pour half of the topping onto the skin side of the ham.
  5. Put the aluminum insert (if you don't have one with an aluminum insert, remove the ham to a cookie sheet and use that) in the oven. With the door open watch for bubbling and when it starts to inflate a little and get bubbly, pull it out of the oven. It should be about 30 seconds.
  6. Pour over the remaining glaze and cook for another 30 seconds or so.
  7. Slice and serve hot.

Notes

  • Be sure to keep a close watch on the ham while it is under the broiler. Don’t leave it. Take it out of the oven once the sugar is bubbly and caramelized.
  • The sugar topping is going to be very hot when it comes out of the oven. Don’t be tempted to touch it or you’ll burn your finger. 
  • You can serve the ham slices hot, room temperature, or cold. I prefer it hot when it's just finished cooking, and later, cold in sandwiches.
