This slow cooker honey glazed ham recipe is so easy to make!
Often when buying ham for a holiday dinner, people buy a bigger ham than they need. When buying a ham with a bone in it, you should plan on 1/2 pound per person. So a 7-pound ham should be more than enough for 12 guests.
You can save money by buying a whole ham that has not been sliced. I also don’t buy spiral sliced hams because they tend to dry out faster than uncut hams. However, I do like to make 1/2 inch deep cuts in my hams, so that the glaze can get in there and add more flavor to the ham.
If your ham doesn’t fit in your Crock-Pot you can cut the ham so that it does. If your ham is too tall for the lid to close properly, you can either cut it so it does or place foil over the top of your slow cooker.
