Your slow cooker will save the day! Here's how to make Crockpot ham.\r\n<h2>How long does it take to cook a precooked ham?<\/h2>\r\nIt depends\u2014but usually about five hours. Since most hams are precooked, regardless of the cooking method you choose, you're really <em>heating<\/em> rather than cooking. With the slow cooker set on low, put the ham in about five hours before dinner. That's for an eight to 10-pound bone-in ham.\r\n\r\n<em>Editor's Tip:<\/em> For a fall-apart tender ham, let it cook longer; 10 to 12 hours on low. This method is perfect for families who prefer a more casual dinner of shredded hot ham and roll sandwiches.

Place cooked ham slices in a slow cooker on low along with some additional liquid\u2014more ginger ale will do, but you can add broth, barbecue sauce, hoisin sauce, orange juice or apple cider. Cook until heated through.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Simmer leftover ham on the stovetop with a cup of water or broth for a couple of minutes until heated through.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>In a pinch? You can also microwave leftover ham. Add some liquid (ginger ale, broth, water, etc.) to a covered, microwave-safe container and zap until steaming and heated through.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>Tips for Cooking Ham in a Slow Cooker<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1757288\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/crockpot-ham-032222-TOH-02-ADedit.jpg?fit=700,467\" alt=\"Crockpot Ham\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/>\r\n\r\nFor perfect results, follow these tried-and-true <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/sugar-glazed-ham\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tips for the best ham<\/a>.\r\n<h3>Pick up a bone-in ham<\/h3>\r\nWhile you <em>can<\/em> prepare a boneless ham in the slow cooker, we find that bone-in hams yield more tender, flavorful and moist results. This is because the bone helps the ham heat more evenly since it conducts heat. The bone also contains key proteins like albumin and collagen, which enrich the ham with flavor and moisture.\r\n\r\nSpiral hams are a convenient option for those leery of carving. Just know <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-spiral-ham\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">spiral hams<\/a> can dry out faster than other types of ham (even in the slow cooker).\r\n<h3 class=\"\">Consider ham butt vs. ham shank<\/h3>\r\nWhen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-choose-the-best-ham\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">choosing a ham<\/a>, you'll likely have a choice between either a butt or shank portion. While both can be made successfully in a slow cooker, they each have a set of pros and cons to consider:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Ham Butt<\/strong>: The ham butt is the half that will usually fit best in a slow cook due to its even rounded shape. While this portion may be the easier fit, the butt portion tends to not be as flavorful or moist since it's leaner than the shank. It is also more difficult to carve into slices since it has two bones running through it.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Ham Shank: <\/strong>When it comes to flavor, moisture and ease of cutting, the shank portion of the ham is where it's at. The shank comes from the upper portion of the leg just below the butt and contains more fat and marbling than the butt. The major drawback to the shank is that its shape doesn't fit as easily into most standard-size slow cookers.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>Calculate how long to cook ham based on its size<\/h3>\r\nFor best results, we recommend purchasing an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thermoworks.com\/thermapen-one\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">instant-read thermometer<\/a> and warming your ham, regardless of size, until it reaches an internal temperature of 140\u00b0F.\r\n\r\nAs a rule of thumb, an eight to 10-pound precooked ham will take about four to six hours on low in a slow cooker. But a smaller ham that's four to six pounds may only need two to three hours when cooked on low. If you opt for a smaller ham, consider cutting the glaze measurements down a bit so as not to overpower the sweetness of the meat.\r\n\r\nUltimately, Crockpot ham is a forgiving recipe as long as you're cooking on low and keeping ham moist with enough ginger ale in the crock.\r\n<h3>Cook on low heat<\/h3>\r\nWhile you may be tempted to blast your ham on high (we're just reheating it, after all), warm your ham in a slow cooker low and slow. Warming a ham on high runs a higher risk of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-keep-ham-from-drying-out\/\">drying out the ham<\/a> and making it tough. Using your slow cooker's low setting will yield a ham that's much more juicy, tender and flavorful.\r\n<h3>Let the ham rest<\/h3>\r\nWhile ham doesn't look like a steak, the same rule about resting your meat applies. Cutting into a ham before it rests will cause those precious juices to run right out onto your cutting board. Before carving, let your ham rest for 15 to 20 minutes to allow those internal juices to settle and redistribute throughout the ham's interior.\r\n<h2>What other ingredients can be used for Crockpot ham?<\/h2>\r\nFor an extra sweet touch, rub the ham with 1\/4 cup of brown sugar before adding it to the slow cooker. It's an addition that's simply divine!\r\n\r\nIf you enjoy hams with a sweet, maple-like glaze, then consider trying root beer as your cooking liquid in addition to the brown sugar rub. Its robust notes of vanilla, sarsaparilla, molasses and cinnamon pair perfectly with ham. Follow the recipe, as written above, swapping the ginger ale for root beer.\r\n\r\nWhile we do love the subtle bite the ginger ale gives a Crockpot ham, there's another super easy tweak you can use when making ham in a slow cooker. If you're feeling adventurous, use a slightly spicy brand of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-ginger-beer\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ginger beer<\/a>, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-ginger-beer\/\">Reed's<\/a>, for a stronger ginger flavor.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overwhelmed by all the holiday recipes taking up your oven real estate?
