Jan's Crock Pot Baked Ham

6# Smoked Semi-Boneless Ham OR 3.5# Smoked Boneless Ham (which I chose today)
Juice from the Crushed Pineapple used in the Glaze, below
Dole Pineapple Juice (bottled or canned)
2 cups Dark Brown Sugar
1-1 1/2 teaspoons Ground Cloves...

16oz can Dole Crushed Pineapple in Juice, drained (save juice)
7-Up Cherry Soda 4-8oz

Instructions
Score the Ham, making criss-cross cuts about 1" apart and about 1/4" deep.  Pour the juice from the crushed pineapple (that you've drained for the glaze) into a measuring cup and add enough Dole Pineapple Juice from a can or bottle to measure 2 cups. Pour the juice in the crockpot. Put the scored ham, flat side down, in the crock-pot on high for 1/2 to 1 hour.

Mix the brown sugar, cloves and drained Pineapple in a saucepan. Add enough Cherry Soda to the pan to make the glaze like a thick syrup. (You can always add more Cherry Soda) But...Remember, as you cook the ham in the crockpot, the glaze will thin. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil 2 minutes. Divide the glaze into 2 separate bowls or cups.

Open the crock-pot and spoon half of the Glaze over the ham. Reduce the temperature of the crock-pot to low and cook for an additional 3-4 hours .

When ham is ready, reheat the other half of the glaze, heat over medium heat in a saucepan, boil 2 minutes. Serve over the sliced ham.
