For a deeper, richer flavor, consider using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar. If you prefer a thicker glaze, whisk together 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water. Stir the mixture into the slow cooker juices during the last 30 minutes of cooking. This will create a beautiful, glossy finish. Feel free to experiment with different tea concentrates. Apple cider or even a spiced rum extract can add unique and delicious twists to this recipe.

Aug 3, 2024My family raved about this ham! The slow cooker makes it so tender, and the glaze is just the right amount of sweet. I added a pinch of ground cloves to the brown sugar for an extra layer of flavor.
