Make a copy of this dish.
In our house, this honey mustard ham cooked in a slow cooker is the most beloved dish.
This meal is as at home in a festive setting as it is for a quiet Sunday evening.
You may spend more time with your loved ones as the ham cooks slowly in a slow cooker, which results in juicy and delicious meat with no effort.
The sweet and tangy honey mustard sauce is the perfect complement to the flavorful meat.
Smooth mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, or a crisp green salad are the perfect accompaniments to this meal.
Crumbly bread, for soaking up the flavorful liquids, is a great accompaniment.
Try serving it with some caramelized apples or cranberry sauce on the side for a little sweetness.
Recipe yields 8 to 10 serves of slow-cooked honey mustard ham.
Fully cooked bone-in ham, weighing 6-8 pounds
1/4 cup of Dijon mustard 1/2 cup of honey
Quarter cup of brown sugar

Half a teaspoon of black pepper, ground
How to Follow
First, put the ham on low heat.
2. Combine the honey, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, ground cloves, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Third, coat the ham evenly with the honey mustard mixture.
4. Simmer, covered, for four to six hours, basting once in a while with the cooking liquid.
5. Take the ham out of the slow cooker after it’s cooked and soft, and let it aside to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
6. Drizzle the slow cooker liquids over the ham pieces before serving.
Tips and Variations
To change things up, instead of ham, you may put pineapple pieces on top and then drizzle the honey mustard sauce over it.
Add more honey or less mustard to modify the sweetness for finicky eaters in your household.
If you’re looking to add some heat, consider using spicy brown mustard or another kind of mustard.
And if you’re a fan of a little smoky flavor in your ham, try incorporating some liquid smoke into the glaze.
