This Easy Crock Pot Ham goes perfectly for Thanksgiving dinner and not just to be made up for Easter dinner!! Now my family even whips up a Ham for our Christmas dinner. I love how easy it is in the crockpot! Plus, it frees up space in the oven when we make the crockpot ham.

Ham has always been a favorite food of mine.   The mom in me loves that right now, I can stock up when it’s on sale, and it can be made into different meals later in the week as leftovers. It’s a great idea to buy a couple while they are on sale and freeze them for later in the year to make for a big dinner. A couple of years ago, I discovered Crockpot Ham.

Crock Pot Ham Ingredients:

  • Ham– I use a bone in ham when I make this. My mom has done a spiral ham, but it tends to be harder to remove from the crockpot.
  • Pineapple Slices–You could use fresh pineapple, and I used canned dice pineapple so that I can use the juices as well.

How To Make Crock Pot Ham: 

Spray your crockpot with nonstick spray, or line it with a crockpot bag.

Place your ham inside the crock pot. Now you may have remembered I have talked about my 8 quart crock pot, well having one this size in your kitchen makes this so much easier to do!!  We did foil wrap it on the top to create the seal since the bone stuck up to keep the moisture in; the ham I got was a smidge too big.  I use my 8 quart crockpot to make shredded chicken, soups, crockpot appetizers and so much more! 

Using toothpicks stick the pineapple slices to the ham and if you want to pour in the juice to the bottom of the pan for more flavor.

This easy Crock Pot Ham recipe is a great way to make a ham dinner and not heat up your house! Our ham always comes out amazing and full of flavor!

Cover with the lid if it fits or you can use foil to make your own lid.

How To Store Leftover Ham

Remove your ham from the bone and trim any excess fat. Cut the leftover ham pieces and store them in an air-tight container. This can be in an airtight container or a zip-lock bag. You can keep the bone in leftover ham recipes or toss the bone. A ham bone can not be given to dogs; it is unsafe for dogs to chew on it as it will break and harm their digestive system.

Ham can be stored in the fridge for up to five days or frozen for up to 3 months.

        For a pre-sliced ham, use butchers twine to tie and will eliminate the problem you experienced.

      It was a precooked spiral ham with some smoke flavoring. I would recommend a non spiral ham it proved to be difficult to remove from the crock pot cause of the slices.

    You all should add brown sugar, sprinkle about a half cup all over ham, rubbing it in (after pouring the pineapple juice )..no other liquid is needed. ..then, make a ham gravy with the juice when ham is done. ..best ever
