Ingredients

5-8 pound boneless whole ham see note
3/4 cup honey
6 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

Line a 6-8 quart slow cooker with a crockpot liner.
Place the ham in the lined crockpot and set the heat to low.
Add the honey, butter, and brown sugar to a small sauce pan over low heat and cook, stirring often, until melted and combined.
Liberally brush the glaze over the ham.
Cover and cook on low for 5 hours, brushing with the glaze every 30 – 60 minutes. You likely won't need all of the glaze.
Ham should reach an internal temperature of 140 degrees before serving. Cook time will vary based on the size of your ham and your slow cooker, but should be close to the 5 hour mark. If the ham is finished before you're ready to serve, turn to "keep warm" setting on your slow cooker.

Notes

We prefer a whole boneless smoked ham for this recipe, around 5-8 pounds. Be careful not to get too large of a ham for your slow cooker.

Cook time will vary a bit, depending on your slow cooker, how quickly you work while basting the ham (the longer the lid is off, the more heat escapes), how often you baste, and the size of your ham. We recommend planning in an extra hour or two for cooking and then leaving the ham in the slow cooker on the warm setting until you're ready to serve. It should not dry out.

If the ham won't fit fully in the slow cooker, you can cover the crockpot tightly with foil and place the lid over that. Cook time may increase a bit with this method.
