HONEYBAKED HAM

HoneyBaked Ham (Copycat) Made With Honey, Sugar And Delicious Spices Is Crispy, Sweet, Smoky And Delicious Like Your Favorite Ham Without The Price Tag!

HoneyBaked Ham was one of the most classic holiday memories I had as a kid (other than the day after Thanksgiving tree buying). We would call in the order for the ham and I couldn’t wait to go to the store with my mom to get that beautiful wrapped ham. No matter what else was on the tables of food, everyone would go straight to the ham.

I still love Honeybaked Hams and they even have a HoneyBaked turkey breast too. The thing I’m not a huge fan of now? The price and the lines. As a kid I never worried about the cost, and apparently I loved the lines.

This ham was just over 9 pounds which would’ve cost me almost $80 had I ordered it. I paid $15 for mine including all the ingredients to prepare it and it only took about 10 minutes of active work.

As a food blogger we celebrate holiday foods earlier than most people so we had people over for Christmas dinner two weeks ago to enjoy this meal and they all requested we make it again for our holiday parties (that happen on the actual holidays, haha).

TIPS FOR MAKING THIS HONEYBAKED HAM COPYCAT:

• Carefully place the ham into your slow cooker. If it is too big for your slow cooker trim the bottom of the ham as needed.
• Dry the top of the ham well with a paper towel so the honey you add to the top adheres best.
• Fan out the slices a bit when adding the honey so it gets between the slices, then you can press it back together before cooking.
• Don’t let the topping boil longer than written, the less liquid the harder it will be to pour evenly over the ham and the drier the topping will be when cooked.
• If you want each slice to have topping fan out the slices a bit as soon as it comes out of the oven (with a fork! Don’t burn your fingers on the sugar).
