Slowcooker Honey Mustard Ham (Cooked in Cola)

Slow Cooker Honey Mustard Ham is must over the Christmas period (or anytime of year in my opinion). I like to cook mine in Coca-Cola but feel free to use apple juice or cider if you don’t have any.

Why Use a Slow Cooker for Honey Mustard Ham?

Using a slow cooker for your ham offers incredible benefits:

• Keeps the ham incredibly moist and tender
• Frees up valuable oven space during busy holiday cooking
• Allows for hands-off cooking with minimal preparation
• Ensures even heating and flavour distribution
• Creates a stress-free cooking experience

Tips for the Perfect Honey Mustard Ham

• Choose a high-quality, pre-cooked spiral-cut ham
• Use fresh ingredients for the most vibrant flavour
• Baste the ham every hour for maximum moisture
• Don’t overcook – aim for heated through and glazed
