Ingredients
Scale
- 1 quality gammon joint
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 4 cloves
- 2 bay leaves
- Sliced onions
- Sliced garlic
Instructions
- Rinse the gammon joint under cold water and place it in the slow cooker with sliced onions and garlic.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar to create the glaze.
- Pour the honey glaze over the gammon and add bay leaves. Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
- Optional: Broil the gammon for a few minutes after cooking for a caramelized finish. Let it rest before serving.
Notes
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the gammon reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
- For a deeper glaze, brush with additional honey during the last hour of cooking.
- Don’t discard the cooking liquid; it can be used for soups or sauces.
- Consider using smoked gammon for an enhanced flavor.
