Crock Pot Ham Recipe with Pineapple Brown Sugar Glaze

When I’m looking for an easy Easter dinner (or any Sunday dinner) for a crowd, a crock pot ham is my go-to choice. The slow cooker does all the work heating the ham without heating up the house.

Cooking the ham in the crock pot also leaves my oven free, so I can cook dessert (like a raspberry galette!) or a side dish (like a cheesy potato galette!).

How long does it take to cook a ham in the slow cooker?

Slow cooker ham means hands-off cooking! For an Easter Sunday main dish, this is about as hands-off as you can get (unless you order pizza ;).

  1. Stir the easy brown sugar glaze together.
  2. Put the glaze on the ham (get it in between those spiral slices!)
  3. Top with pineapple slices.
  4. Cook on low for 3-4 hours.

You’ll know it’s done when a meat thermometer registers a internal temperature of 145°F. (A digital meat thermometer like this makes it easy to read the temp.)

Before serving, baste it with the remaining juices and let it sit 10 minutes to let the juices soak in and do their work.
