Ingredients

1 bone-in Spiral-sliced ham (pre-cooked)
3-1/2 cups brown sugar
1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple
3/4 cup maple syrup

Instructions

Spray a slow cooker with cooking spray. Sprinkle about 1 cup (maybe a little more) of brown sugar over the bottom of the slow cooker.
Place a bone-in, spiral-sliced ham in a slow cooker that has been sprayed with cooking spray. IMPORTANT: Be sure the lid to the slow cooker still fits on the slow cooker. It is important that the ham you buy fits into your slow cooker.
Cover the ham with brown sugar. Separate the slices slightly as well.
Cover the ham and brown sugar with with crushed pineapple, allow some of the juices to run down in between the slices of ham.
Pour the maple syrup (or honey) over the pineapple and ensure that the ham is completely covered.
Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook per the instructions below.
Cook the ham on low for 3-1/2 to 4 hours on high or for 7 - 8 hours on low.

Notes

According to the USDA, precooked, spiral-sliced hams are safe to eat cold. However, since we are reheating this pre-cooked ham, use a food thermometer and heat until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140 °F.
Be sure to use a large slow cooker or crock pot so the ham will fit in the crock pot. I recommend using one at least a 6-quart crock pot or larger.
Make sure the size of ham you purchase will fit in the crock pot that you have.
Once you place the ham in the crock pot, but before you start adding the toppings, separate the slices slightly, so the juices will run down inside the ham.
