Hands down, the best ham we’ve ever had!

In the heart of the Midwest, where the seasons paint the landscape with vibrant hues, families gather around tables laden with hearty meals that speak of tradition and love. This Slow Cooker Apricot Dijon Spiral Ham is a dish that echoes the warmth of those gatherings. It combines the sweet tang of apricots with the sharpness of Dijon mustard, creating a glaze that transforms a simple ham into a centerpiece fit for any occasion. This recipe is perfect for those who wish to bring a touch of nostalgia to their table, reminiscent of Sunday dinners at Grandma’s house.

This delightful ham pairs beautifully with a variety of classic sides. Consider serving it alongside creamy mashed potatoes or buttery corn on the cob, both staples of Midwestern comfort food. A crisp green bean casserole or a fresh garden salad can add a touch of color and crunch to your meal. And don’t forget a basket of warm, homemade dinner rolls to soak up the delicious glaze.
