Super Easy Maple Brown Sugar Ham



YIELD: 10-12 SERVINGS

SLOW COOKER MAPLE BROWN SUGAR HAM


PREP TIME 5 MINUTES
COOK TIME 5 HOURS
TOTAL TIME 5 HOURS 5 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS

  •  7-8 pound spiral-cut ham (bone-in or boneless...doesn't have to be spiral cut, a butt is fine)
  •  1 cup dark brown sugar
  •  1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  •  2 cups pineapple juice

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Use a 6-7 quart slow cooker. Unwrap the ham and discard flavor packet. Place the ham into the slow cooker stoneware, flat-side down. Rub brown sugar on all sides. Pour on maple syrup and pineapple juice.
  2. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours. An hour before serving, baste ham with the collected juices from the bottom of the slow cooker. When cooking is done, remove carefully and let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes before carving.

Of course, from Mel's!

INSTANT POT:
7-8 pound spiral-cut ham, or not spiral (needs to fit!)
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c maple syrup
1 c pineapple juice

Pour 1 c water into instant pot.  Place trivet inside.
Tear 1-2 or long pieces of foil (fold in thirds and have it wrap all the way under and around ham to other side, making handles to pull it out after.  (Can cut slashes in ham if not spiral so glaze will go in more)

Make glaze by stirring sugar, syrup, and juice together.

Place ham into instant pot, on foil handle.  Pour glaze over.  

Cook 2 min per pound (16 min).  Release naturally 5 min.  **It will take about 30 min to come to pressure**
