Ham Dinner in the Crockpot
Submitted by Barb Hickner, Outreach and Enrollment Coordinator
Ingredients
- Ham – needs to be able to fit in the crockpot with the lid
- Sliced Potatoes – 4 or 5 large
- Green Beans – Fresh or Canned
- Brown Sugar
- 1 can of Sprite
Make a layer of brown sugar to cover the bottom of the crockpot. Add the sliced potatoes on top of the brown sugar. Place the ham with the shank (or flat side) down on top of the potatoes. Cover the ham with another thin layer of brown sugar. Pour the can of sprite into the crockpot. Place the lid to the crockpot securely on top to seal in the moisture. If the lid does not fit securely then using aluminum foil may be used to seal the top of the container.
Set the crockpot on low and allow to cook for 6-8 hours. If using canned green beans, add them to the mixture when there are 1-2 hours left in the cooking cycle. If using fresh green beans, cook time will be longer. Serve directly from the crockpot or transfer to another serving dish. Enjoy!
