CROCKPOT SPIRAL HAM

Spiral ham is a favorite at our house around holiday time, especially Easter and Christmas. It’s not just a holiday dish, though – spiral ham is delicious any time of year! In the oven though, it’s kind of a hassle to make, which is why it often only shows up on holiday tables.

This is no longer the case, though! With my Crockpot Spiral Ham recipe, you can make it any time! This beauty is impressive enough to be the centerpiece of your holiday feast, but it’s also easy enough to make for a weekend meal or weeknight dinner. The leftovers can also be used in so many wonderful ways!

WHAT SIZE HAM SHOULD I BUY FOR CROCKPOT SPIRAL HAM?

This will depend largely on the size of your Crockpot, but I would recommend not going above 7 to 8 pounds. An oval Crockpot will work best for this recipe. If you have a smaller Crockpot, it’s fine to trim the ham a bit so that it will fit.

WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF COOKING A SPIRAL HAM IN THE CROCKPOT?

There are so many benefits to the Crockpot Spiral Ham!

Cooking it in the Crockpot frees up the oven; if you’re cooking for a holiday dinner, this makes such a difference! You can easily bake desserts, warm up rolls, or cook side dishes while the ham is happily simmering away in the slow cooker. Your kitchen will also smell amazing!

Additionally, Crockpot Spiral Ham stays delicious and juicy! Often, oven-baked ham becomes dry; the cooking environment just doesn’t work well with a lean meat like ham. In the Crockpot though, the moisture can’t escape, so the ham can’t dry out! The result is just plain amazing. It comes out perfect every time!

The clean up is also really easy in the Crockpot. Instead of trying to scrub off bits of baked-on glaze and ham from a roasting pan, the enamel surface of the Crockpot liner is easy to wash. It’s convenient to cook, fun to eat, and easy to clean. This recipe sounds like a winner to me!

WILL CROCKPOT SPIRAL HAM FREEZE WELL?

If you’re making this dish for a holiday gathering, chances are you won’t have any leftovers. That’s ok! It’s easy enough to make any time, and when you do have leftovers, they freeze wonderfully! You can use the leftovers in so many ways; let your creative juices flow!

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

  • Dawn S.Buyer of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebook Series
    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
