So I hope by now you understand my undying love for my Slow Cooker, as well as my unwavering commitment to bring you incredible recipes with minimal dishes. This Honey Glazed Ham is one of my favorites. It makes mealtime around the holidays so easy, and everyone will be impressed by the sweet and spiced flavors! What I love about this ham is that while it tastes and looks fancy enough for a main dish at a dinner party or at a holiday dinner, it isn’t too difficult for a weeknight dinner or Sunday supper! You can easily dress it up or down as you wish with some delicious side dishes. I am not usually a big fan of mustard or ground cloves, but they pair so well with ham, and I added just enough to give it that extra layer of flavor without overpowering the ham! Feel free to adjust the seasonings to your tastes, and experiment with the type of soda or juice used.

Ingredients Needed:
Ham: I used a fully cooked, boneless ham. You can also use a fully cooked, bone-in ham but because it is larger it will take longer to warm through. Ginger Ale Soda: helps to keep the ham moist while also adding an amazing spiced flavor. Don’t knock it til you try it! Honey: adds sweetness, but you could use maple syrup if you prefer. Apple Cider Vinegar: balances the saltiness of the glaze while adding a mild fruity flavor. Corn Starch: helps thicken the glaze. Seasoning: freshly minced garlic, ground mustard, ground cloves, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper pack a ton of flavor into this dish.

Crock Pot Honey Glaze Ham Variations
Use a different soda. You can try this ham glaze with a different kind of soda to change the flavor, or even a mixture of soda and fruit juice. Try using Sprite and orange juice, pineapple soda, tropical soda, apple juice, or cranberry juice! Add fruit. Pineapple slices and pineapple juice are great additions here, and work well to balance out the sweetness with a bit of tropical flavor. Ground Mustard. The best substitute for ground mustard is Dijon mustard, if you have it. Use ½ a tablespoon of Dijon mustard instead of ½ a teaspoon of ground mustard.
