Slow Cooked Gammon in Pineapple Juice

 
I thought it was about time I started using my slow cooker again and after this success I think its going to be more of a regular fixture in our house. I was sceptical whether gammon would work but it really did and the pineapple juice added a lovely sweetness! I'll be doing this again on Christmas Eve - maybe with Cherry Coke!?

I served it simply with macaroni cheese and garden peas.

Method:
Step 1: Put one gammon joint in your slow cooker (you may need to rinse the joint first), cover with pineapple juice and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Easy as that.

You couldn'd ask for a simpler way to cook gammon. Sounds great ... will have to give it a try :)

I never thought of cooking ham in the slow cooker (we don't use the term "gammon" in the US--I had to look it up!!) I recently started a site just for crock-pot recipes, if you need any ideas for using your slow cooker more.

I'll keep you bookmarked to see what you come up with.

It's cold and raining here today...this would be the perfect dish for dinner.

It's about time I dug my slow cooker out again. I tend to use it a lot more in the winter, they're great for cold weather food like stews and casseroles.

I really like your gammon Idea, I've tried cooking it in coke ala Nigella, it works really well.

I always use the slow cooker to cook gammon - you just can't beat it.
Yours looks totally delicious cooked this way.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy, and it looks and sounds delish.
