When my husband requested baked ham for our Christmas in August celebration, I knew I wanted to make a tasty version for him, but since I had a huge dinner to make on my own, I wanted to make it as easy as possible. So, as it often does, my Crock-Pot came to the rescue!
You are going to love this brown sugar and pineapple crusted ham. It’s so tender it just falls apart and the best thing- just throw it in the Crock-Pot for six hours and forget about it!

This is going to be a recipe I use for many holidays to come.
Can me change the sugar with alternative? The option is kurma or you have suggestions?
Well, it would change the recipe a lot but you could try honey instead. Let me know what you think!
This will help my husband make our ham. I love that I can use a slow cooker.
This looks so good. We love having ham for the holidays. I’ll keep this recipe in mind.
Yum. I love a good ham. I’m not sure what im fixing for Christmas dinner yet. It’s just me and my son most likely so I won’t go overboard.
My sister always makes the ham for Thanksgiving, I am sure she will love to try the crockpot recipe. Looks divine.
This looks incredible and I love that this is made in the crockpot. I so would ,love to try this recipe! Thanks for sharing!
I just love ham and the fact that this can be made in my crockpot is a bonus.
That looks divine! I actually prefer ham over turkey on Thanksgiving. I do get some turkey, too, though.
All the amazing flavors of the pineapple in a delicious festive ham! This recipe is exactly what I need!
while we are vegetarians, i love how beautiful the glaze on the ham is.. and your presentation is always amazing.

I make ham very similar to this the only extra steps I take are rubbing a couple tablespoons of honey on the ham then i pat the ham with about a cup of brown sugar using the honey almost like glue to hold on the brown sugar
Great tip! Thanks!
Does the ham go cut side down or sideways. The video and directions are different
I like to do it cut side up so I can pour the pineapple and brown sugar in the slices. But really either way works fine.
does the ham needed to b covered?
Yes, cover it with the crockpot lid or if it is too big to add the lid then cover it with aluminum foil.
