  • Rest: once the cook time is up, remove it from the slow cooker and place it onto a chopping board. Let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes then use a knife and carving prone to slice it into thin pieces.

Notes

  • Note 1 - Ham: one of the most important things is choosing a ham that will fit into your slow cooker. It also needs to be pre cooked ham, which is smoked. You can use bone in or boneless ham. I like to go for a ham that is reasonably even in size across its length and breadth. This ensures even cooking. You can remove the rind and pour the glaze over the white layer of the meat depending on which type of ham you get. 
  • Note 2 - Coke: we want to use regular coke. Not sugar free or diet coke. You can use Pepsi if you want to. But again, use the full sugar version. 
  • Note 3 -Basting : If you want to baste during this time you can. Simply make a double batch of the glaze and use this every hour to baste the ham. The liquid in the base of the slow cooker ie coke and run off glaze is too thin to glaze with. So either reserve some or make the double batch. Or simply don't glaze during the cooking process. Each of these are possibly options.
