"I met a lady sorting through a bin of hams at the grocery store. I had missed those and she commented they were the best. They were smoked, mostly boneless, butt portions. Well, they were half the price of the sliced one I had in my basket, so I asked her how she cooked it. She wraps the ham in foil and cooks in the crock pot until done. The foil keeps the juices in, she said. So I tried it for Christmas Dinner. Superb."

Score surface of the ham by lightly cutting the surface in a diamond pattern or criss-cross pattern.
Trim the ham if necessary to fit the crock pot.
Wrap in one piece of heavy duty foil.
Place the ham, cut portion down in the crock pot.
Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours until the internal temperature of the ham is 140°F
Remove the foil and drain the juices.
Brush with your favorite glaze or a pepper jelly. I like Pineapple Habenero pepper jelly.

This was OK...the flavor was VERY good & it was VERY moist, but not as tender as I had hoped. MIGHT try it again.

My wife and I live just outside of Atlanta, GA. Two daughters live in town, one with my two grandsons. My son is living in California. I'm a retired environmental manager at a manufacturing facility. My Mom and Dad would have loved this site. Dad was a huge collector of recipes and was in the food industry. Mom was a terrific cook as well. Another influence was a roommate at the Universtiy of Arkansas that was an excellent cook. Today I enjoy barbecuing and grilling year round and cooking in general. My latest adventure is in bread baking. I'm loving it and going to school on it right here on the bread forum. I'm active in a terrific church and also love fly fishing and fly tying.
