•Glaze packet with 2 tbsp. Maraschino cherry juice
•Maraschino cherries

How to heat a full cooked ham in the crockpot. *Cover the slow cooker and cook on the LOW setting. Cooking on low heat helps prevent the ham from drying out.

For a smaller ham (around 3-5 pounds), aim for 2 to 4 hours.

For a medium ham (around 7-10 pounds), plan for 4 to 6 hours.

A large bone-in ham (10-12 pounds) may take 5 to 8 hours.

Mine was a smaller ham and took about 3½ hours to reach an internal temp of 140°F.
