Ingredients

1 5-6 pound fully cooked ham
1 can crushed pineapple 20-ounce can
1 cup orange marmalade
⅓ cup deli mustard zesty with stone ground mustard seeds

Instructions

Prep Ham and Glaze

Unwrap the ham from its store packaging. You can discard any spice or seasoning packet that might be included. Place the ham on a cutting board and use a large, sharp knife to score the ham and make a criss-cross pattern cutting about ¼” deep.
As an option, if you use a pre-sliced ham there’s no need to score it before cooking.
In a small bowl, use a spoon to blend the marmalade and mustard

Add Ingredients to the Slow Cooker

Place the ham in the slow cooker. Add all of the canned, crushed pineapple. Pour it on top of the ham and let the juices collect around the ham in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Use a spoon to top the ham with the marmalade and mustard mixture.

Cover and Cook

Cover and cook the ham on low for 4-6 hours.
Carefully remove the ham from the slow cooker. Place it on a large plate and cover it with foil. Let the ham rest for 15 minutes.
Slice the ham and place on a serving plate, as an option add several spoonfuls of the pineapple/marmalade juice from the slow cooker over the sliced ham. Otherwise, you can toss the juice. It has done its job!
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy.

Notes

Store leftover ham covered and in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can enjoy the ham cold - ham sandwiches! - or warmed up. Freeze any additional leftovers in freezer-safe, air-tight containers for up to 6 months. If you are serving this at Easter, I recommend making a Bunny Cake for dessert. It's a classic Easter treat that kids love! Another great option is classic Vanilla Cheesecake, a family favorite!
