This was a last-minute decision. Saturday night I decided, why not a slow-cooker ham? So at like eight on Sunday morning we went to the store to gather the ingredients. It didn’t help that I was riffing off a recipe that used a different kind of ham. I cooked it on low for 8 hours and it ham (a fully cooked smoked ham) was just warmed through, not piping hot or anything. Still, it was a tasty ham, especially as it’s not something we do all that often. I also made this elaborate green bean casserole using cream cheese, bacon and sauteed onions, among other things. The green beans were not fully cooked, either, though I like them crunchy.

It was a decent meal, but i’ll have to figure out that ham thing. Next time I think I’ll go on high for the first hour and low for the next 7. Unfortunatley I wasn’t at home for the first hour so it wouldn’t have worked.

Happy Easter

Also, we ate ham pretty much for the next seven days. 2.5 lbs of ham is a LOT of ham.
